@Eric_E All I've seen this update so far is that the flag that got rid of the rounded corners is now broken. Not even been updated for 1 minute and we're already off to a bad start. Not to mention I've already found about 5 other bugs this week. I know this is a dev build and features are WIP, but please listen to feedback and just remove stuff like this from the browser.

@Eric_E Bing chat button does not appear in the toolbar anymore. It was still there until I updated today. I can still access it by using the sidebar, but it would be nice to have it fixed. Is this a known issue or something new? Thanks for your hard work and support.

Ugly rounded corners are back even though they are disabled in flags; why just why cant MS leave the design alone, this browser WAS so clean and beautiful however, it is just getting bloated & more bloated with useless features if thats what you call features; I have already started to install other browsers to start migration; can't stand Edge anymore
Please just go back few revisions in design or give the option to your users to disable these silly gimicky features of rounded tabs & corners etc; i dont want them

@Eric_E Is it a known issue that the Bing Chat icon is not in the toolbar anymore? Seems like the "Discover" button as in the stable build appeared again.
So now I need always 2 clicks to activate Bing Chat, including every time I close the Discover pane in the sidebar.

@Eric_E Bing-AI button seems to be gone after the update. Well... Kind of... I can still access it using the sidebar. But I liked the convenient Bing button! Leaving some screenshots below ;)

Yeah this seems to only be a problem on Windows, can't replicate on a Mac FYI
Edit: It's started appearing on Mac now, about 4 hours later.

@richardr1126 I'm unable to reproduce this problem. For anyone that sees this, I recommend sending feedback from the browser with diagnostic data for our engineering team to investigate.

so you're saying they don't want feedback in their dev/test builds to avoid releasing these issues to stable and get even more of the same comments there instead. got it.
