I would agree with you @PaulR about the “upgrade” it was more like a culling!

I very rarely use the pc to read/post on this forum, instead using iOS and iPhone the current forum software has caused no end of issues and frankly puts me off some days..

I suspect quite a few others also feel like this.

I use a Linux Laptop, a Win 10 two-in-one and an Android Tablet, all without on-going problems.

Interesting Chris. Here's me saying the change is biased towards phones/tablets and you're saying that your experience is that it's actually made things worse.

You'd have to laugh if it wasn't so pathetic.

And, yes, there are many times when I am so repulsed by the new "experience" it takes a great deal of effort to even read let alone post.

The biggest issue for me on android is that when you open a thread it always defaults to the first post of that particular thread. I have to enter the last page number to view new the posts..

Doesn't work like that for me on Android .... if I click on "x minutes ago" at the right of the screen it goes straight to the latest Post.

Yes, I used to like that, too.

But since we dropped it, I find using Firefox Focus on my Android device even better.
