Overall I really like the new toolbar design, feels clean and the icons are really neat.

The only things which I'm not yet a big fan yet, but of course that's personal, is the color "red" for the notifications. The first times I received some I was like "what? there is an emergency?". To me "red = error, problem, emergency". But the good point is that I notice the notifications all the time now and also not everybody see the colors the same way, so I gonna become used to it of course 😉.

Again great job!

Yea, to be honest I'm not 100% sold on red for notifications :) We're still evaluating whether or not it makes sense...

As you said - it does its job pretty well since it supposed to steal user's attention :) But on the other hand it's not emergency, which red color usually indicates. We'll see how it performs and come back to this a bit later to evaluate the decision.

Yes, that also came in my mind very first. Commented in another thread. Blue was better for me :/
