How do I go back to the old layout?

I have a 13” tablet and today when I logged in I was given a new layout for the forums. 

The left 1/4th was home/tools/etc..

The next 1/4th was forum categories, even after I had chosen one

The third 4th, about 2-3 inches wide is the forum area, the useful part

And the last fourth is back to stats   

The 3rd fourth is the only part I care about and the part I want to use to read and post on forums. It’s being limited to less than the width of a smartphone on a device 6 times larger. I can’t imagine what it is on a smart phone, 1/2 of an inch?

It is getting ridiculous. I'm on a 32 inch monitor, with 4 columns of shortcuts and widgets on the right side, but lose fully 50% of remaining screen space to space hogs. If the multiple side bars were able to be re-sized by "grabbing" and dragging, or hidden with the click of a small directional tab, that would be acceptable, and what most of the good sites I follow routinely utilize.


 Thanks for the comments, you all are not the only ones to notice or complain - they're working on it behind the scenes.

Who launches this crap without real-world testing???
