As per new UI, there is no 'clear alerts' button to clear notifications.In old UI there existed this button and felt very useful but now.. There isnt?
Is it only to me?
Or what if there is this button in new layout but i couldnt find?

Is it possible to change the sidebar to black? I'm used to the old one, which had a black background, and as far as I can tell, you can't just change the new sidebar.

...I pretty much cant check messages nor have live chat open anymore when I play chess cuz it lags so bad like why does me trying to check my messages cause the entire site to freeze for a solid minute? and the live chat as well, why does it lag when I type there so much?

The link for this ARENA isn't working. The event is being played on Sunday. We need CHESS.COM to fix the link before Sunday. The bug will prevent us from playing the ARENA.

I trust in the effectiveness of the technical support.

The new sidebar isn't bad, it's just the top right that is terrible. 5 suggestions:
1. Make the max notification limit 99 again, not just 9
2. Make the icons have an actual size to it, as they are way too small currently.
3. Create separate sections in the notification part for notes, new forums, old forums that have just have somebody talked in it (when you click follow).
4. Have a completely separate thing for chat instead of bundling it up with messages.
5. Includes a mark all as read/ clear all notifications feature.

It's still in development, so can I suggest some things
It has a lot of potential to be grat
1. make the messages, notifs, and friends able to hover over
2. make them all bigger
3. move the notifications back to the chess.com thing
4. Make the sidebar customizable

https://www.chess.com/openings is now not connected to any menu option, which I find rather annoying. I used to often browse it to look for a good response or a cool new opening. Could you please add this back to the menu, maybe under the option name "Openings Database"? Also, all my old bookmarked openings are gone now!

of these awful UI changes please edit this before inevitably rolling this out thank you
I'm too young to be feeling too old for this but whatever
I'm not going to make a dissertation on why this new UI sucks I don't have the time but I just want to point out this one thing i find funny
With every new UI change it becomes harder to reach the today page, I guess with the next one they'll make you have to type it into the url huh? lol
