A massive Facebook redesign just went live for me, and it's...not great

I woke up on Sunday to a major redesign of Facebook.

The navigation elements, menus, and settings were moved to the left on the desktop version of the platform, with no navigation on top of the page. I can't find a way to roll it back, so this is what the Facebook experience looks like for me right now.

It said that all your navigation options were moved into one place.

The digital assistant pointed out the 3x3 grid button, which appears to contain a full menu under the sun. Beneath it, there are a number of shortcut methods, including a single one for Facebook's Watch video offering.

It has been almost two years since Facebook launched its last major redesign, which included a big change in the site's navigation, a cleaner look and an optional blue color. It took some getting used to, but it was a much needed change to the over-cluttered Facebook.

The new change is hard to comprehend. I use Facebook a lot, and not having the Home button made me lose my mind every time I needed it. It is hard to get used to having nothing on the top right, where some of the most important features and options used to be.

Everyone will see the changes in their own way, and every major redesign requires some adjustment. There are some elements of this design that don't seem right. Having two columns of menu buttons on the left feels like a clumsy, cluttered solution, with so many colorful icons fighting for your attention.

One of the navigation buttons is left alone in the lower right corner. There is a new Messenger message, but it appears unfinished at this point, with no suggestions as to who I should send it to.

Most of the navigation and options on the left are used in web design, and both of them have a similar look. Placing all of the options, features, buttons, and shortcut on the left might not be the best solution for Facebook.

The new design is not in line with the design of Facebook's mobile apps, which have a navigation bar at the bottom, with most features and options available under the menu button.

I think this is a test for a small group of Facebook users because I couldn't find any information about the new redesign on the web. When I hear back, I will update this post. Can I get my old Facebook back?
