Odd new browser tabbing and groups.

You now cycle through or close them at the bottom of the handset.

I can see the advantage, but it's going to take some getting used to.

What else did they change?

Its annoying and I prefer the old style. Keep trying to disable it in Experiments chrome://flags (search for tab grid layout) but it keeps reverting back

My notifications for WhatsApp and Messenger no longer work (silent no matter what the settings and no on-screen indication of getting a message), the PIN screen is really laggy and chrome is behaving oddly. WiFi Direct has also been switched off, which I used a lot so really annoying.

Apparently I moved on to it on Monday (Sony Z5 or something...X5 maybe? - the replacement to the Compact that is clearly not compact!)
After it downloaded and installed, it did a reboot. I then switched phone off and left it for 5 minutes then started it back up.
Seems to be working like a charm.
Apart from my notification screen changing slightly, I can't actually see any difference so all under the hood for me.
