    I'm at the point that I had to turn MTS completely off. I couldn't continue to run at 100% CPU usage for basically no work improvement.

    I'm in/out trying to finish a new chromium build setup (google hates me today, they removed a build option for chromium that reduced build time from ~5hrs to ~1,5hrs for non-google employees GFY :emoji_joy:) but there is a patch already submitted to google for MTS so it's probably best to just leave it off for the night and hope they push it by morning (yesterday seemed to push at like 1am right? thoughts & prayers maybe I should remove my google hate lol)

    I did notice that pages load much slower now. Everything seems to take longer. It is unfortunately not as efficient as it was. I do wish, as many have lamented, that I could continue to use the older version until the bugs are fixed to remain as productive. But I'm in no rush, can't say the same for others whose work flow has been interrupted. Having said that, I am grateful for the work that is being done to give us an -eventually- improved version of MTS. I don't want to look a gift horse in the mouth, so-to-speak. :emoji_sweat_smile:

    You don't need any keys or anything, just login with your existing TV account. Where are you seeing any mention of a key in v3?

    That's some serious smacktalk :)

    I'm a Michigan State grad so predisposed to root against Ohio State, but I have no legs to stand on this year. We were very, very, very terrible.

    (Except against Michigan... so - at least that was something :) )

    I really hope this gets fixed. I have to manually search the HIT ID to find out what the HIT is. Usually I'll add a HIT to catcher and do whatever is in my queue. Then manually delete the catcher for it if it's not a batch or a HIT I want to keep a catcher for. Before, hit title, requester name, pay, etc... all used to be auto filled once a HIT was caught or when I added it from finder. Now it's just numbers and characters. even after I catch a HIT Now after I complete a hit or return it or wtv, I have to look up the ID for each HIT to know if I completed it, returned it, wasn't qualified for it or timed out in order to decide if I want to delete the catcher for it or not. Also the colors are washed out in both Dark and normal mode, before it used to be so easy to distinguish between red, green, yellow, white, now I have to look harder at washed out colors and smaller font. Increasing page font doesn't help as it affects all other tabs which is not helpful if the issue is only on Finder. :emoji_disappointed: My poor PandaCrazy screen too! Ah my poor eyes! I miss my darkly theme... :emoji_cry:
