New Workflow tab - Discussion Megathread

I’ve been working with the new beta workflow design this whole week and i am sorry but it’s HORRIFIC!!!
It’s extremely inefficient for advanced users like our team that manages highly complex workflows that are long and interlink deeply with BE workflows and API calls.
Its more exhausting for the eye to read top down vs left right and to find a workflow is very hard within that tiny side column list.
The UI of the workflow canvas is highly inefficient with so much white space just left unused to look “pretty”.
But the most frustrating thing is that one doesn’t get an overview of the full workflow without having to scroll or click: Before you could easily switch between different workflows and see the full workflow at one glance immediately, now one needs to first the workflow first in the tiny list, open it and then scroll to see the full workflow and hope to remember all the steps one saw at the top of the workflow before one scrolled => this kills the brain, we really want the old workflows back!

The overview was so much better and much less cognitively straining. It has been absolutely exhauuusting to use the workflows this past week and it has slowed us down significantly.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT MAKE THIS THE PERMANENT WORKFLOW DESIGN!
