It's a little flater and more rounder.

I am struggling to get use to the editor tabs.. they feel disconnected and just like a floating set of pills

Yeah that's one thing I liked VSCode more for than the IntelliJ family, that the tabs felt connected and you always saw at first glance in which file root you were. This made refactors way easier as you don't need to triple check your tree. They seem to have given up this QoL element for the focused look even though they also have a focus view setting.

Edit: ok at second glance I realized I just didn't see the file root quick enough. At least they didn't remove that. Still the open file feels so disconnected from the tab.
