Dyslexically unusable without images

I am not dyslexic, but I have a difficult time with words and after the newest update, suddenly I find myself being unable to use blender, because of all of the drop-downs and text, I would love if base blender was more visual, instead of efficiently collapsed text upon text, like before, I only started using blender after it became more visual, because all the text just confuses my brain, it's the same with geometry nodes, I have a way easier time using it, when it was visual, now I can't do anything in it, for people who know what they're doing and know what to search for, I can see how it would be easier to have it in menus with text, but for someone like me, who is a visual person, text just confuses me and my experience with blender has become significantly worse and way more difficult.

Personally I feel myself getting a panic attack and working way slower, with even primary shapes and especially modifiers after the change.

take a look at blender for artists. Maybe it will be a decent solution for your request bforartists.de

thanks, it was a great suggestion, unfortunately in V4, Bforartists also got the drop downs, instead of just showing you the big window, so we run into the same issue, I do like the colorful interface, but when it's segmented in drop downs upon drop downs, it becomes awkward and irritating.

For some reason, I'm great at separating noise, but when things are overly categorized in dropdowns, I basically just become blind to it, when modifiers and everything is just sorted in a big window in columns, my brain works perfectly, but boxes I go blind and feel like I'm having a panic attack.

my current fix is to use version 3.3 - Sable - LTS
