New wallet version works for me too. Also dev is great. Every day on btctalk + on Discord. If you called him '''f*** off' as you stated. You deserved ban.
Let's start from dev - he is not on Discord every day, but ok. Maybe I didn't notice him a couple of times, but I clearly remember people saying 'he is not here, propably because it is sunday' or something like that (dev even liked that response next day). It doesn't matter though, I can login and leave my Discord open - that doesn't mean anything.
As I said earlier I've responded with 'f off' after he started removing my messages for no reason, insinuating in PM that I just spread 'FUD' and that I don't wait for wallet to synchronize even though I've spent 16 hours on 'new wallet' with no single connection.
About that 'new wallet' - it is not new. Even dev is stating all the time that (supposedly) this wallet has some extra nodes added and source code is pretty much the same - why do you people call it 'new wallet', I have no idea.
The new version of wallet is working fine for me.
So if it doesn't work for me and at least couple of other people (dev says you don't have to use configuration file with new nodes and they have to to make it synchronize) and it works well for you (how many connections do you have? do you use conf? remember to remove conf file as dev said) I should be called one who spreads 'FUD' and he is supposed to remove my messages? How would you feel if dev would be like 'oh, he has a problem, I don't care, I'll call it FUD and kick him from Discord channel if he is going to state otherwise'?
Don't expect me to use different (more polite) words to people like him - every single time his response is 'it is problem on your side'. It basically means 'I don't care, it works for me' so it is same as 'f off', but he used different words.
...and he is bad developer - you don't even try to deny any facts that I've written about his terrible management of github account and web wallet that you can use to manage your coins... that is not secured even by simple HTTPS.
I have no problem with the new wallet. It is working perfectly.
