How many old features were killed with the latest Galaxy J3V update?

My Galaxy J3V updated yesterday to Android Version 9. I beleive a LOT of features I use all the time are no longer available. Of course, the company does something it's proud of and it sucks for users. I can no longer customize notifications for each app, my radio app controls won't show up on my lock screen, I can't chang the look of my icons so they're not childish, the way my windows open and display now make it harder to navigate, and I can't disable some apps to keep them from running constantly. Also, everything on most of my screens got smaller and harder to read (especially my Lock Screen). The Clock on the top bar even moved to the other side! So, is it just me or did they really take a serious step away from personalization with this upgrade? And are there any more poor changes that I just haven't found yet?
