I gave it a try yesterday but ultimately the change in UI/UX kinda messed with my flow. My mouse had to travel farther across the screen to change tabs, which was the biggest downside. Too much travelling.

There were also parts of the sidebar I wished had the option to toggle hidden or visible. Didn't really like the sidebar taking up screen real estate on the sides instead of just the top. Felt a bit too tight and squished in. Even changing from Normal to Touch mode didn't give me enough space. I kept trying to see how I could move the bar back to the top, lol.

Ended up going back to Floorp.

Hotkeys are almost always faster than using a mouse. Ctrl + tab & Ctrl + shift+ tab. Also alt + 1-8.

Ctrl + T to make new tab and Ctrl + W to close current tab.
