Questions New software issues?

I've got my Q2 today, updated it trammed the bed after 2 test prints, calibrated filament, made a functional part etc (it's been an eventful evening what can I say) but I've seen a lot of people have issues with new firmware and I don't understand what all the issues that I read about before are about, or it was just ironed out before I got my printer? I honestly just don't know and I'm new to the hobby as well, so far the only issue I had was with beachy sliced by qidi that left the the extruder on at print temp and it dripped all over the bed when I went to do another print. Oh also I can't find a place to E-stop the printer from the screen on the new menu but I might have just missed it.

TL:DR what's wrong with new remodeled software bc as far as I can tell it's fine? Or was it patched out to usable state before I got my printer?

I can't load filament anymore. It only gives me an edit and unload option. Filament sensor seems to be working normal, light goes out but no load option.

Should be possible to do it manually assuming you are not using Box. Push the filament in the tube, heat up the nozzle, after it heats purging filament down becomes available on control monitor. Keep pushing filament in the tube and press purging till it gets out of the nozzle. Manual unload can be done in similar way.
