Great RSS Reader, Horrible UI Regression

I love ReadKit. Thank you for keeping it updated, even though there have been a few bugs along the way. But this new UI is a horrible step backward. The bold font on article titles is just too heavy, nearly unreadable. The article pane now has huge margins so there is less text on the screen. I can appreciate the design decision to move all the icons from the status bar at the bottom to the tool bar at the top, but you killed the pinning of the icons to the respective panes (the Mark all as read… button used to be anchored to the left side of the article list, no matter how wide each column was; now it’s stuck next to Tag icon, over the wrong column if my feed list is wide). Also, the grouping of the read/unread with Tags icon is confusing UI; grouping those implies they are mutually exclusive, but they aren’t, they are independent toggles. I know this sounds harsh but it really hurts when an app you love becomes ugly AND harder to use all at once. Once 5 stars, now only 3. Sigh...
