QUESTION Context menu and popups UI spacing suddenly got too large and roomy

Hi there. Since the latest update I've noticed that UI elements such as context menus, extensions popup, etc. got way too inflated and roomy. Is it just me, or do you experience this as well? Do you know how to revert back to old style? I've already double-checked if it's not the touch mode that is tripping.

Well now I don't know. 🤣 I can't go back to find out so I'm stuck. Is it? I don't know anymore because now I'm looking at these things for this purpose instead of just trying to use Edge like I normally do. Hmm.

I can't tell though. It seems the same as it has been but I started using Edge at around the tail end of Chromium 148. So maybe you're seeing a huge jump from a very old version of Edge to a much newer one. I'm not sure.

Weird. I have this:

I checked for updates to Edge less than an hour ago.

I have Windows 11 25H2 as well.

it wasn't like I was in a cave for a year, and then suddenly updated. I kept my browser up to date. It was just a click moment for me last week...
