The older-style update notifications interrupted some people's workflow, causing them annoyance, which is one reason why we designed the new more silent update mechanism. 🙂

You can add a user option to choose In preferences to automatically background updates or with notification

The development of 1PW8 remains a mystery for me. I remember some complaints about the old updater interrupting peoples workflow although its implenetation used the approach pretty much every application used. The problem could have been solved be a simple switch.
But I don't remember any complaints about item counts or the search UI. Yet item counts were removed (or to be more precise reimplemented in a way that no one is able to find them) and even worse the search UI was changed in a way that makes it by far the worst implementation of search I've ever seen, i. e. instead of showing all results inline one has to deal with an annoying popup window and extra keyboard shortcut to get all results.

As I consider 1PW a security related software showing the release notes before an update is a must in my opinion.
