Which pop-ups are you referring to please?
Your other suggestions are duly noted, thanks.

As it happens, I used to coach. (The game was a bit easier back then, even I was a decent winner). We did indeed use HHs a lot.
This comment has given me pause for thought, and you're right - at the moment, we don't offer a good way for somebody who wants to improve their game to review and analyse their own play, let alone share it with somebody else. This bothers me and we will make a plan.
When I talk about downsides - if we save hand history files to the device, we are handing over a huge amount of power to third-party software developers. That power can be used for good or evil.
Before we implement a downloadable hand history, I want to be sure that there isn't a better solution.

Correct.

You are correct, they don't. But of course, when you have hundreds of items on your backlog, you have to prioritise. As an experienced software developer you'll understand when I say we use WSJF to prioritise, and our dev teams work in LeSS - and you can probably spot some of the implications of those two choices. Also, consider that our distribution is 20+ different customers, numerous supported devices, multiple integration types with our customers, we have to translate everything into 20+ languages, etc.
We are always improving, and still speeding up. But we'll always have more work on the backlog than we can actually get through.
With regards to your other points:
#1 UX Improvement: hide the big banner
This will actually disappear if you make the lobby smaller. In a future release we'll make it scrollable as you suggest.
#2 Poker lobby improvements
All of this is planned.
#3 UX Improvement: make the menu and structure consistent
Yeah I agree. The principle behind this choice is that most of our new users are coming from casinos, not other poker sites. Such users are new to poker and more likely to know what 'Hold'em' is, than what a 'Cash Game' is.
However, my view is that this is a minor advantage, for that player group. On the other hand, the disadvantage of this navigation style for a player who is used to playing on other sites is significant. We will change at some point in the future.
#4 Tournament lobby improvements
Agreed - we are moving onto tournament improvements next, and all your suggestions (plus a fair bit more) are planned. Realistically, I think this will be done in v42.
#5 UX improvement: overlapping of hand history / replay
Known issue that will be fixed, along with further improvements to the replayer. Planned for later this year.
#6 UX improvement: overlapping of the “i” screen
We are going to change this to 'pop out' from the table, on desktop.
#7 UX improvement: overlapping of the board when on break
This has already been fixed and will be released soon. (It's actually very hard to ensure it doesn't overlap ANYTHING).
#8 UX improvement: overlapping the “new table” message
This one was new to us. Amazing nobody had reported it before. Thanks.
#9 Find finished tournaments in lobby
This is planned.
#10 UX improvement: show on which table players are
This is planned.
#11 UX improvement: show current position in tournament lobby
This is planned.
#12 Finish tournaments when all remaining prizes are the same (satellites)
This already happens, but it is configurable in the back-end. We found that Coolbet had not enabled this setting for some of their private tournaments, which is why you experienced this inconsistently. We're considering whether we should simply remove the config.

This is all that I’ve got for now. I have spent about a week testing it, those are my main concerns for now.
Thank you for the detailed and constructive feedback. As you can see, a lot of what you've mentioned is planned, and it is simply a matter of priority now.

1. Yeah this is weird. We actually have them on mobile, just not on desktop. In your opinion, should it increase in increments of the small or big blind? (On mobile, it's increments of the SB. I would prefer that it wasn't an option, since most people don't care).
2. This is how it's always worked (even in the old client). It was not the planned behaviour for the new client though. To their credit, the devs spotted this themselves and fixed it already - the fix will be released in the next-but-one update. To their detriment, this mistake should never have gone live. There were some embarrassed faces last week.

The rules are published here:

I'm happy to clarify any aspect of these rules, what is unclear?

In theory it is fine, but the major providers dropped support for tracking MPN long ago.

We are targeting the end of this year. Danish players will likely have to move earlier.

For those who want to play a 6 or 9 max cash game will they be forced to post blinds heads up if they are seated at a table with only one other player?
No. We'll implement something to allow players to choose their table-starting preferences before then.
