I'm sure we'll find a lot of things we like or dislike about the new UI changes. The first thing I've noticed that I dislike is every time any quest updates it pops up and takes up 1/4 of the screen....

Am I looking at it right that we don’t get crystals from daily’s now? Just 65 crystals from the crate instead of per mission and chance of 10-250 crystals
65 covers what you would usually get from all the components, but minus the chance to get a huge number of crystals some day. That chance was staggeringly low but not zero -- less than 1% -- which meant that in a game with 10s of thousands of players, some folks would get lucky and get it 10 or 12 times in a single year while others would go a whole year without getting it once. This creates the illusion of fairness (everyone gets the same chance) but in practice it creates divides between lucky/normal/unlucky.
Giving out crystals that average in the rare events -- so it's 10/day every day for finishing instead of 5 a day most days, 10/day once a week, 25 a day once per month and a much bigger reward in very rare cases -- is a net benefit to the player. You get what you would have gotten with normal luck, but you don't have to sweat your luck on any given day.
The first mini crate in the Daily Activity Prize Box has an icon for crystals in it but no indication of the odds or potential rewards. That was the one that granted the chance of 5-250 crystals. I completed my challenges and galactic war pre-update so I'll miss out on the chance to double dip on those rewards since you get 4 daily challenges and 2 fleet challenges but only need half of those for the prize box.
And like you have this "permanent?" 2 notification marker in the upper right. No idea how to make that go away.
