So For a little background. We currently have over 2400 Gallery users and about 300 desktop users with only 100 that actually publish to the Gallery.
So the majority of our gallery users are in Sales, work in the Hospital, Managers, and overall people who don't have or use any technical background but like the interface, as it gives them the information they need and is easy to read and run the applications
Unfortunately, the recent changes to 2021.4 seem to focus on the developers and have excluded the consumers of the reports.
1. The home page has moved the Gallery field and the banner pages to help navigate the screen
to now and excel list field.. where the first thing to pop up is My Files which 2300 won't have anything and will be confused.
Once they get to the public the plan view and lack of visualization make the process less seamless and make it harder to use than before.
Private Work and Public work should not be mixed together.
2. The actual workflow details are now either missing are made to be unfriendly/uncohesive
The Metainfo design allow developers to give instructions on how to use an app/workflow, and even give a contact information on who the developer is as the publisher and the designer may be two different people. This is also good if your working on a team and having the team contact is key vs a person who may be away from work.
Now the description field has been stripped down from new lines and spaces and the author info has been taken away
There are others that were changed such as Run Count Missing, bolding of the Studio/Owner, and Moving the Run button away from the Natural reading over from Left to right but moving it to the top right.
All this gives the impression to mimic a desktop and cater towards the developer and not the consumer.
In my opinion, Alteryx needs to enable more functionality to enhance the text, bold, color, items used in word and webpage vs reducing everything to a simple string.
