Customize flycheck status in modeline

After upgrading doom today I noticed the modeline display of flycheck status has changed. Instead of a green flag when all is OK or red error count if there are errors/warnings, now I have three icons with counts beside them.

I know the current version has all the information but, at a glance (for me at least), it’s harder to know if there are errors or not. I have to put on extra cognitive effort and look at the count to actually know if there are problems or not.

In the previous version, only glancing at the modeline would be enough.

Is there a way I can customize the old behavior back? Or, at least, something similar?

Thanks in advance.

doom-modeline introduced the doom-modeline-check-simple-format variable for controlling this.

;;; add to $DOOMDIR/config.el
(after! doom-modeline
  (setq doom-modeline-check-simple-format t))

This should revert it to the old appearance.

Perfect! Just what I wanted.
