    and when things finally respond, look at that! so 2005, so web 2.0!
    Not only does it take a ridiculous amount of space, it is not functional.

    the purpose of this ui isn't to show big icon, it is to show an overview of changes without opening yet another window.
    so what you need to do is go easy on the vertical space, half suffices, shrink those ugly icons, and redundant information below can be replaced by click = ping the asset like Unity has always done.

    I've never used Collaborate, so a few silly questions whether it supports what I consider basic functionality:
    1. Can you resize the window?
    2. Can you sort items by name, path, file-extension and version-control-state?
    3. Can you search in the list?

    Nope. But those are far from Collaborate's main issues.

    The main being that it keeps interrupting your work (for 2-3 minutes every 10-15 minutes) and that it corrupts files (namely Unity Timelines).

    And that's for 1.2.16.

    Version 2.0 is even less usable.

    but to my surprise the default collab that's in 2020.1 is robust, it's like a completely new product.
