@Ondřej-Šutera Yes, I'm sure we have all tried using the new pinned menu. As a professional pilot and long time Premium user, I have many layers of interest, and pinning them has just created a big collection of randomly presented thumbnails instead of a nice, sensibly-grouped list of layers.
This is not forward progress in my opinion, I'm sad to say.
@idefix37 Yes, I have.
I now 'enjoy'a large table of randomly sorted thumbnails, with no logical order of presentation. This is my point.
As a coastguard pilot, I'm interested in weather, wind, low cloud, sea state etc. The previous menu was very well ordered and we could turn layers on and off easily but restraining the organisation. This new pinned menu takes longer to locate a particular layer.
@jflood Another professional pilot here; this update is crap. Agree with all your points.
Windy is awesome, hands down it really is fantastic.
One suggestion that might make it even better for those who use it for flying/aviation - and ISA temperature deviation view, under temperature, for the altitude/level selected on the slider.
This should be a fairly easy thing to do, as the models can already show the temperature at those altitudes. The ISA Standard Temperature formula is not complex either.
It might be a little niche but if there's interest in this, I throw the idea out there.
@Rickpp Yes good points, well put. I've also been a long-time user of meteoblue, and I like some of the ways they present their maps compared to Windy. It's often been nice to have access to both.
Sadly, I see the company that owns Windy has bought a majority stake in meteoblue as well. Great - I guess we can look forward to Windy nerfing that over time, too, and making a good product worse because they can't accept not messing with something that isn't broken...
I have to say that while I always try to see the bright side, I'm also a bit underwhelmed.
Please consider:
The new timeline is nice. And the improved feed sources are also good.
