GitHub's new buttons look like they are disabled or like labels

I'm not a big Github user like many of you. I just find it really odd to click on the buttons. They just look disabled or like labels! I have to rethink before clicking. Hopefully the Github design team can make it better!



what annoys me the most, is i can't click on the folder icon to go into the folder, i _have_ to click on the folder name. you have no idea how annoying it is when you see an icon and can't click on it. we have become visual people cause of smart phone and making an icon unclickable is just bad design.


Totally agree!


I definitely prefer the old buttons.

What I absolutely can't stand is that the horizontal nav at the top isn't in a centered container. I use a wide monitor and the the navbar is slammed all the way to the left while the content is centered with miles of whitespace on either side.


they should do a better responsive design that takes into account wide screens (which are very common)


The new GitHub UI is garbage, what were they thinking?


Is there an option to revert back to old UI, like old.github.com, similar to reddit?


the cli interface doesn't change ;)
