It would still be nice to have a new posts button, wherever we are in the forum, instead of still having to go back to forum home.

Posted about it a few times to no response. 
Makes no sense to have it on one page only and edit the search box to replace it on all other pages.

The daft thing is, all the other forums I'm on have a new posts button, regardless of which part of the forum I'm on.

I've never been on a forum where each button has its own line, normally they are all in a row. Here we have the post title, 6 rows just of buttons, then post title again, then the actual content of the post. (On mobile access)

Why have the first three buttons at the top? Would it be so bad to actually have them under the last post, or in a dedicated sub-forum as a sticky.

If you look at any selling website all the FAQs, help, contact us, about us etc are at the end.

Still only a few posts per page too.

I had hoped it would take a few days for the issues to be worked through and changes implemented, but it seems like there is no rush to keep the users happy.

I wish I could see more than one post at a time, and when I open a thread virtually the whole screen is filled with the thread title.  I'm limiting my visits to MSE to one per day now - it's just too user-unfriendly.  I wonder if whoever is responsible for this is even reading this thread any more as the same points are being made as have been raised since day one, and nothing has really improved.

The forum home/index page still crashes for me. It makes the forum very difficult to use when you can't see an index. Page rendering is also all over the place still. That stupid cog encroaches on to the post making it difficult to read.

I see no evidence of major fixes having occurred and updates seem to have ceased. The whole thing has been an utter farce.

You mean something like this?

@WhyNot? That's PC view, mobile use is horrific.

It’s the same for me on an iPhone.
It’s a bit better on an iPad in landscape mode, but still fairly dire, especially when trying to post something, so I do sympathise.

That's how it appears on my MacBook Pro.
