This is a very popular trend and a lot of programs are replacing their icons in this way, so it&amp;#x27;s obviously fine for most people, and I realize this is probably a niche accessibility need I have.&lt;p&gt;But, to use the new icons, I find I have to check each one every time to find the one I want. Instant recognition is no longer possible. For me, this extra cognitive load makes it difficult to use Blender for more than a few minutes at a time.&lt;p&gt;Blender is a fantastic product and one of the best examples of what open-source can be, but I for one will be appreciating it from afar, and remaining on 2.7 until there is a way to get more usable icons.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Blender 3.x roadmap</title><url>https://code.blender.org/2021/10/blender-3-x-roadmap/</url></story>

Existing workflows or usability habits shouldn’t be broken without good reasons – with general agreement and clearly communicated in advance.&lt;p&gt;Oh boy. How I &lt;i&gt;wish&lt;/i&gt; so much that other software developers would follow this principle... It seems nearly every software I use and rely on has to change its appearance and interface every 6-12 months, breaking familiarity for no objective reason, and simply because &amp;quot;it looks better&amp;quot; to look at (and not necessarily to use!) to the subjective eyes of someone.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Blender 3.x roadmap</title><url>https://code.blender.org/2021/10/blender-3-x-roadmap/</url></story>
