I see this scrollbars as another solution in search of a problem to solve and
in the process introducing more problems than it solves. When will people
realize that this is not the right approach to do things.

Hi!
In my opinion, the new scroll bars have a decisive disadvantage. They are
right on the sides of the desktop not clickable (Fitt's Law:

Here is a mockup of how to solve the problem:

I am totally with you on this one. It looks like the original design was
intended to be a bit different, check out this beautiful mockup:

Hello,
Note that my grand father already forget to read the whole email in

he will for sure never read long emails!
Not only the scrollbar is small, but when that part of the window does

Sorry, but every pixel counts is not a definition of a problem. Before
coming up with a solution, first you have to define what the problem

With previous desktop environments, my cursor constanly touches the left side

I think you can turn this behavior off. From the control center, go to

That said, I haven't found it a problem personally, and I do spend a lot of
time on the left side of the screen. You have to push to get it to show, so

The grid animations look ever so slightly rubbish, for a number of reasons.
One which is more of a “design decision” is this: because of the way snap
animations start to appear when you're sorta-maybe-nearby to the screen
edge, I seem to get a number of abortive animations, usually popping in and
