I really don’t like it. It is harder to navigate and the per-post loading is a waste of time when I’m trying to scroll quickly through a topic. I can’t see if a topic is new or someone just bumped a multi-year old topic.
It seems just bad. And I haven’t gotten used to it after the several months it has been out.
I haven’t been on here for too long, but I like the design. I constantly have questions that were answered years ago, and I wonder if the answers are still accurate. When someone uses an old topic post it keeps me from repeating a question no one wants to come back to. The “use the search box” reply doesn’t always hit the mark when it was back in 08. This helps.
I enjoy that the search box maintains my current questions while I look through posts. Im good over here!
I like it. Great for browsing on iphone. You can click the little blue box in bottom right and go to most recent posts without having to scroll. I love that when someone quotes a post it doesnt show the whole quoted post with their new post, which is a waste of space imo.
It couldnt be simpler to scroll through an entire thread instantly: look in the lower right corner, you can jump to any spot. Look at the picture Im using here this is an example of a large thread.
I didn’t like it at first either but now I’m more used to it. Like anything else, the more you use it the easier it gets. I hated my first iPhone after switching from Android too. I actually cant remember the old forum layout that much but this one works as well or better.
I’m going to try removing the app and reloading it. I don’t use it much on my phone, so no biggie. There was one occasion I needed assistance while on the job though.
Like I said before, I miss having the signatures of members so you actually know who they are and where they are from, etc. Otherwise the new format is so much better.
