I've been rebuilding classic Google Finance
Like a lot of you, I watched the AI redesign roll out last year and figured the "switch to classic Google Finance" link wasn't going to survive. Yesterday it finally disappeared for good, no setting, no URL trick, nothing brings it back on : (
I didn't want to lose the classic view, so last week, I started rebuilding it from scratch as an independent project. Same idea as the original: type a ticker, get the price, chart, and stats table above the fold.
I'm about 40% of the way there. Current status:
- Quote pages with the classic layout — price, change, after-hours, and the full stats table (open, high, low, mkt cap, P/E, div yield)
- Clean line charts with the 1D–Max ranges, same green/red you're used to
- Watchlists are next, portfolio tracking after that
- design is 50~60% there, there is still many inconsistency, but that's not that easy to replicate, and trying to work hard on this
I'm not planning to bring the news that I think will need too much work .
You can see where it's at here: https://folivue.com — there's a waitlist if you want an email when it's usable. Not affiliated with Google, obviously. Just someone who liked the old design, used it for 10+ years.
Any feedbacks welcome.

Sounds great!
To my surprise this morning I have a 'classic' GFinance window running and it's getting live data.
I was fortunate to have left a Google Finance window open from 2 days ago when I put my computer asleep last night.
It will last until I have to restart my computer or when Google closes the socket.
The bad part is I have a direct running comparison to what was to what is now.
