I'll try to find the time to list up a few things. But just to clarify: in lots of ways the new layout is better, too. It's just that there are a few, like you say, friction points that leave (at least) me a bit confused. I'll get back to you sometime this week.

We are very interested in making Toggl user-friendly. Maybe you could tell us specifically what is wrong with the new interface, what exactly are the new friction points? You can send us a mail to our support mail address. Thanks! You can find your hours from reports. Just enter a custom date range (Oct 15th). Hi Antti.

The new UI introduces very many non-standard elements, which makes it necessary to "learn" how to use the site instead of intuitiveness. This essentially violates the most basic web design rule: "Don't make me think". Not saying it's all bad, mostly it works and usually even when you have to think, it's pretty straightforward, but not always. I can tell that your UI designer isn't up-to-date with the contemporary design standards. What makes matters a bit worse, you removed some of your (non-standard) UI features from the previous design that I had already learned to use. Now I don't know how to do the same things anymore. (I want to report my hours from Thu 15th Oct - is there any easy way to find this info now?). I’m disappointed.

I have only used Toggl for a few weeks, but find the upgrade straightforward in appearance and better in functionality and speed. I particularly like the ability to log time after the fact. Many times, I am away from the desk and Web all day, but then need to log time against projects at the end of the day. Very nicely done.

We'll release a RPM soon. Sorry, but open-sourcing is not in our plans :) @Lorraine - I haven't been able to reproduce this issue. Maybe you could send us a screenshot of this issue to our support email address. Also add your browser name and version. @David – Yes, our binary is for Ubuntu and Debian. We’ll release a RPM soon.

Your binary (prepared for Ubuntu, I assume) doesn't work there because of dynamic library versioning issues. I use this opportunity to encourage you to open source the desktop client ;) @jaanus
