This Update is a step into the right direction
I seldom say this, at least not without sarcasm, but good job Niantic. For one time u did fix some bugs. Gym experience has never been so smooth, as it should be.
Now u need to think about the coin reward system.

They should improve the gym badge system.
I mean, it's very easy to get to silver, then it takes forever to get the gold. But even then, what's the point of gold gym badge? Just one extra item?? Why don't I just go to another PokeStop and spin the damn disc?
I want gym badge to have an effect on battling. Say, gold gym badge trainer's Pokemon takes 5 times to take down, silver's 4 times, etc. And make silver a little bit harder to get.
I'll just be happy if they do something with stardust rewards and giving me my legendaries already. I do agree that they need to tweak the coin system. Again update is still new, I'm sure something will change in the future. Right now their focus is still fixing the raids for the upcoming event and the release of legendaries.
The gyms are not fixed. The HP and energy bar is not jumping all over the place as much but the dodge bug is still there, the regenerating HP is still there, the GYM not changing colours once you take it over is still there, the bug where teammates cannot put in a pokemon into the gym after its just been taken over until the wait about 10 minutes is still there. I can go on......
Not exactly smart.
Lets say a group of 5 trainers clears the gym. Trainer 1 puts in their defender. Now the 4 other trainers have to wait 10 minutes before they can put in their defenders. This is where the problem starts becaue a rival can come along and start attacking the gym, they may get "gym is under attack try again later" but if they are able to get to attack the gym, theose other 5 trainers can still put in their pokemon and the attacker gets a nasty surprise of instead of battling 1 pokemon they end up battling 5 because only 1 showed up when they entered the gym.
Fixed? I assume this is more sarcasm? I never had the dodge bug before but now every fight. When I switch pokemon it auto switches back and forth twice before settling on the chosen mon. Game crashes all the time, way worse then before. Now probably 30% of the time when I am not moving sightings goes blank as if I am moving too fast. Just to name a few
