PBI Service Updqate Icons

With the new service update the icons for Reports, Dashboards, Datasets lost their color and are just white icons now. Makes it difficult to separate. For example i know the datasets are orange, reports are blue and dashboards are green. Please consider putting this back the way it was or color code them in a different way

My workspace still has orange and blue icons. Is this something that is going to be rolled out? This seems like a change that will make things worse. I find users already have a hard time navigating to reports vs data, and this change will make things more difficult for them. I'll also have to spend time re-doing training materials.

Yes, please revert this change and return the color for the Type icons for Reports, Datasets, etc. The removal of the colors is terrible. It's very challenging to tell at a glance which type you are on, especially when they are named the same. I typically like the changes you make, but this one is not good.

Seems they've partially introduced, reverted and re-introduced this so different people are seeing different things at different times.

Icon colours are coming back. Change came from outside the Power BI team.

Yes. It is SOOOoooooooo much more difficult to distinguish content types now in my workspace. I came here looking specifically for this idea so I could upvote it.

Yes, please add a toggle button and put some control back in the hands of the users.
