SharePoint views all showing as tabs on a list

As of yesterday all of my SharePoint lists that have views have switched to showing the list of views across the top of the page. In my searching for an answer I believe this is because of some global change that Microsoft is pushing out. I have not been able to determine if there is a fix for this awful change. I would love to just remove this row in its entirety. It is a site breaking "update" for my complex lists that I use as ticketing systems.

Is there anyway to remove this row or get back the View Options dropdown?

Thank you.

    Did someone tested this before the rollout? I don't think so. 3/4 of my lists look like the users' above and 1/4 look in the old way. the content is zoomed in and the text fields show all of the content instead of the used "see more". Not to mention that the forms I had painstakingly created to edit the lists now have reverted to something which I cannot even change.

    Revert, revert, revert.

    Same thing for us today. Suddenly a random few have this new view. We review Message Center updates weekly and keep an eye on the roadmap. We can find no evidence of this dramatically different interface to prepare our users. Give us documentation for what we can do to adjust.

    This switched to the Tab view a few weeks ago and today is back to the list view without warning. Any chance to have a setting to control this, it is just random changes with no warning.

    Today is just switching between view tabs and dropdown list. It has done it about 4 or 5 times today.
