P: Recessed layer thumbnails

Since updating to 21.1.0, I've noticed something weird - when opening an image, the thumbnail for the Background layer is ok, but as soon as I create an empty layer, or duplicate the layer, or just turn the Background layer into a regular layer, then the layer thumbnails appear "contracted".

This image shows how the Layers palette (and more specifically, the layer thumbnails) looks like when opening a new document, and how it looks like just after clicking the "new layer" button:



Anyone else experiencing the same? I'm using Windows 10, by the way.

    To tell you the truth, I can live with that, but it's annoying because I can't have a good look at what exactly is in my layer, cause the preview is so small

    Does anyone know if this bug still persists in Photoshop 21.2.4?

     

    I use Photoshop 21.0.3 this is the last version before this bug appeared. I am afraid to update because I am tired to reinstall Photoshop 😞

    21.2.2 is out... and this issue is still there. It's getting incredibly annoying. Sometimes I use PS CC 2019 instead of CC 2020 because it's the only way I can clearly see my layer thumbnails and work normally - being able to see these thumbnails is more important to me than the fancy new features that I don't use (well, I do use them sometimes, but not near that often as looking at the layer thumbnails, which is a very basic feature now broken for many of us).
    Anyway...

    Yes, like Hamed says, nothing has changed with this update as far as this bug is concerned.
    After installing the 21.2 update, I didn't check the new "Select Subject" algorithm, neither the new rotate pattern feature, or anything like that... I went straight to check if the normal layer thumbnails were finally back and... what a disappointement, they are still the same. So, we're in for at least another 3 months (best case scenario...) putting up with this annoying problem.
