5.1.3 is better than 5.2.1

Now that I have 5.2.1 courtesy of Fedora 42 to 43 upgrade, I have to say 
...  FAIL!!!

Gimme back 5.1!!

1) When I click on the Accounts icon on the left side, it gives me a 
list of Liability, Asset and Favorite.  Single-clicking the arrow beside 
any of these does nothing (behavior change - it used to open the 
sublist).  Double-clicking on any of the three entries opens Liability 
and shows me the one credit card account.  Click or double-clicking on 
that account closes the sublist (behavior change - it used to take me to 
the ledger for that account).

2) So how do I get to the account ledgers now?  The only way I have 
found is to go to the Institutions icon, open the institution and 
double-click the account.

3) Click on the Categories icon on the left.  It gives me Expenses and 
Income.  Clicking or double-clicking on either does nothing.  (behavior 
change - It used to open a sublist.)

Update - I waited several minutes.  Now double-clicking on either 
Expense or Income will open a sublist under Expense.  Clicking or 
double-clicking any item on the sublist closes the sublist.

4) Account ledgers now have a column for Details.  I don't want that 
column.  It just clutters things up.  I can shrink the column (which 
takes 15 to 20 seconds) but cannot turn it off.

I have not looked any further.  This is unusable, a complete fail.  I 
cannot go back because Fedora does not offer a 5.1 package for F43. 
Flatpacks are not acceptable.  I have had far too many problems with 
them.  Same with snaps.  An appimage might be OK if one were offered.
