New Layout - A thumbs down

I dont know if this is the right place but I am so NOT liking the new layout of IF. Granted new interfaces take time to get adjusted to, but somehow this is becoming difficult.

What works:

1.) Font and colours are looking pretty.

What doesn't work:

1.) Earlier, everything was visible on screen without any hover/click. Now we have to even click on our own profile to check how many posts we have made.

2.) I do not see how many votes each option has got in polls.

3.) There are no direct links to individual pages below the links to threads. Now one has to navigate all throughout each thread to locate a certain page.

4.) Cannot find emoji section.

5.) Cannot find "forum search" box where we can locate posts in an individual forum using keywords.

Guys, please add if you see any other issues. This can help provide feedback to the DEV team. Such developments take time to get all enhancements in place, but constructive feedback would surely help them.
