How do I turn off the new sidebar feature thing?

[Andrew Brett Stevens]

I updated and now trello is unusable.  I get so much lag on everything; opening cards, replying to cards - everything.  Tried changing browsers with no luck.  It said I could turn it off in settings but there is no setting for this that I can find,  HELP!! Please :-)

Similar struggles here. I love the ideas behind the new sidebar, but it's making Trello unusable because everything takes so long to happen now.

Natalie: http://trello.com/putyourusernamehere/labs  It gives you the option to reset.  Finally back to normal

Thank you so much!

I'm searching for this solution as well. I can't for the life of me find a toggle to opt-out. 

Look, this feature is pretty cool, but 100% unusable since upgrading. At this point I'd rather have a bunch of sticky notes on my desk.

John, see my answer to Natalie above.

Can you give more details on why it’s unusable?

[Andrew Brett Stevens]

Just so much lag Michael.  On everything.  Open a card - 10 seconds.  Click reply - 10 seconds, write reply - 10 seconds to open the reply box - another 10 for the cursor to pop up, start writing and nothing, then 10 seconds later what you wrote starts appearing.  It's a nightmare.

And when you turned it off, it’s fixed?

I just turned it off following Andrew's instructions and so far so good. It doesn't take 10 seconds to take any action in there now.

Michael: It's 95% back to normal.
