Lovelace thermostat cards dominating UI

I upgraded from 0.70 to 0.84 over the weekend and of course was eager to try out the Lovelace UI. My first reaction: Wow, my entire screen has been taken over by climate controls!

In addition to taking up enormous amounts of screen real estate, the cards seem to be kind of scattered around the UI, not grouped together. I guess the assumption behind the current sizing/layout is that there will be at most a couple thermostats, but when there are a lot of them, it’s kind of unwieldy.

I know I can customize the heck out of the Lovelace UI, so this is more of a first-time Lovelace experience report than a request for help.

Use stack cards:
