I really quite don’t understand that. If you opened a folder in the old UI and saw all items of the folder… and if you now in the new UI choose a folder in the new “filter” you also see all items of the folder. So, the result is the same as before: you see all items of the corresponding folder. - Where’s the difference now (apart from the way to get there)? 
Thanks for the correction! I edited my post.

So again bitwarden developer that got nothing better to do needed to completely destroy user experience right before Christmas for people to take notice of their existence.
The classic UI worked just fine, why not spend the energy make the extension faster so users don’t need to wait a couple seconds to load the vault every time. Guess what they made the extension even slower with a new UI

A few material differences:
-
The space available for displaying long folder names is now cut in half.
-
To view items in a folder that also contains nested folders, an extra step is required (clicking “View items in TopFolder”).

Okay. In the filter and with “wide” or “extra wide” that is at least better…
I don’t see any “View items in TopFolder” setting / option ??
In the filter, I can choose the nested folder, if entering the parent (?) folder.
BTW, now one can even see that there is a nested folder:
I just checked in the old extension: there you couldn’t see (in the vault “tab” and folder list) that a folder even contained a nested folder. So, one little improvement here, I would say.
No… If I opened my Vault in the old UI, I saw my folders that I created to organize my vault items.
If I open my Vault in the new UI, all I see are every item, unorganized.
I get that. But still: in the new filter you see and can choose all your folders (more or less like before) - and if you set a filter to a folder, you see all items of that folder (more or less like before). One could say organized. 
As I mentioned in my comment, this happens when viewing “items in a folder that also contains nested folders”. For example:
Level1 (folder)
Item1 (item)
Item2 (item)
Level2 (folder)
Item3 (item)
Item4 (item)
To see Item1 or Item2, you must click “View items in level1”:

Extra steps nobody asked for.

I think that implied in @nelph0nd’s complaint about the “missing” folders is that they would prefer not to be presented with a display of “All Items” when opening the Vault page in the extension.
I would propose the following fix for this issue (which, as some have pointed out, represents a security/privacy concern), and which may also ameliorate the delays in opening the browser extension when there is a large number of vault items:
Feature Request: Do not show “All Items” on Vault page
Instead of showing “All Items”, the area below the “Favorites” section should show only those vault items that do not have an assigned folder. Thus, for someone who values privacy, they will be able to assign all vault items to folders, thereby hiding them from the Vault view; to take a step further, folders could be made into subfolders under a top-level folder, which would also hide the subfolder names from the default Vault view. Alternatively, a user who prefers to have all of their vault items displayed on the Vault page can achieve this by not using folders.

Before, you didn’t have to click on a folder for it to open?
Okay, I see what you mean. I had no nested folders and only now tried it. - Maybe another thing for the list of improvements to reduce the times you have to click to achieve something.
I don’t have anything further to add, but wanted to insert a thank you to all of the UX/UI professionals here offering their feedback. You are putting the frustrations many of us are experiencing from these unforced errors into eloquent, understandable context.

I followed the vault hours an hour ago. It seems, they have already gotten that feedback and think about a solution. (if I understood it correctly)
Personally, I would prefer some option or setting, to switch it on or off the see all (or none) vault items (to never see all items when you now only have the vault tab seems impractical - BTW, overall, in think it is not bad to have everything in the vault tab… as I used the old Firefox extension today, I found it weird that you have items in two tabs and have to change tabs… ).
The filters (or distinct settings/options) may even have the potential to set individual settings for your preferred view of the “vault” tab (instead of defining one view of the “vault” tab for all users) ?! (BTW not my idea - I think someone else wrote this somewhere here…)

We are almost there. If the developers can please do the following (or add options for the following):
- Please change the Fill button to be Edit. And allow filling if username and password by clicking the name of the entry in the extension.
- Please allow us to hide All items list. I do not wish to see all of my items when I am attempting to log into a website.

And if one just wants to View item details without entering the Edit mode, where would one click?
Ah perhaps they can change Fill to be View and within Viewing there should be an Edit.

And if one clicks on the item name for a listed vault item that does not have a URI match (i.e., an item not listed among the “Autofill Suggestions”), should it still autofill (to provide a consistent UX), or should it instead do something else (to avoid the risk of leaking credentials to a phishing site)?

This was the thing that bothered me the most on this new version.It is backwards!

I am not sure what the solution is for this in the new UI. But the Bitwarden Chrome Extension was working very well yesterday with the old UI. The new UX is inverted from what users expect when clicking to fill. Maybe the Devs can simply make the Fill button much larger.
