Option for enabling legacy appearance.
Because of the recent updates to the appearance/overlay of Discord (and a lot of people not liking it), we should have an option in the "Appearance" tab of settings for enabling the old school look for Discord. This would give all users the freedom of switching to the "new" appearance if they prefer that, or switch back to previous versions or an overall "legacy" appearance.
Additional feedback on the most recent update (as of 4th February 2020), it looks worse than before. Many users have been able to tolerate changes to the appearance, but this update is simply unacceptable. Too much space between the messages, and the font size of the chat being the exact same as the name in display (Cozy setting).The profile picture of users is *way* too small and the text appears right next to it, which is jarring to say the least. I do recognise the fact that the team at Discord has put in time and effort into this update, but (unfortunately) general consensus wants these changes removed. I sincerely hope the team makes amends and makes Discord better to use for all of us.
Thanks in advance,
Raven.

I personally don't see the motivation behind the changes. I agree with all of the problems OP talked about. As I commented in a different thread, the least there is to do, is to give new features an option to turn them off.

my problem is that having the reactions show up when you mouse over a message is visually distracting and adds clutter. this is an accessibility issue as well as an aesthetic one as I know people who find that hard to manage
also, having the home page show games friends are playing is extremely unhelpful for people who use discord for reasons other than gaming and it means that there's constantly a blank column taking up a third of the screen

I agree with OP too, I also like few things about the update:
1. now it shows the timestamp of each message when you hover over it.2. for annoucement channels you no longer see the alloying ("Publish") button which triggered me so many times.
also..... the yellow color is pretty much invisible if you use light theme yu have to hover over it for it to show

I'd even just be happy with them fixing the message spacing and shrinking the new GUI thing, however, a legacy version, including legacy light mode, would be the best solution.
