Yeah, the general dimension nerf definitely hit the new dimension drops as well. When it first started, a few people were lucky with advanced and/or expert dims early, and racked up a huge number of extra ones to use later. I got lucky picking up a couple of advanced right before the nerf, which let me keep the advanced ones rolling, even though I only found 2 or 3 new dims from the daily chests.
Basic dims give me new dims at a rate well below replacement, but with all the shards and my existing stock, I will always have plenty of those. Intermediates I haven't been able to have as many open post-nerf, but they don't seem to drop all that many extras either. I'd be surprised if int chests were the one type that still gives high rates of extra dims.
I believe the rate of higher level dims from a coordinate chest (not the daily reward chest) is still the same, and fairly high. A big chunk of my stock of ints came from synthing basic chests, and many of my adv came from opening those ints. So the strategy of farming int dims is sound, but mostly because you can use the shards to at least replace them, and a decent shot at improving on them. If you're counting on the daily chests to keep your dimensions up, you're out of luck.
