I take it this is related to the new look? Not really liking it as the "spacier" post list takes up more room on my mobile so I see fewer postings per screen which means more scrolling. A "condensed view" option would be useful. 

The screenshot (chrome on android) shows how there's too much space consumed by each post in the list view, IMHO. The previous layout was much more condensed.

Can anyone find the link to make sure skimlinks is turned off? I've looked and can't find it anywhere.

Had a look in account etc and cannot find it - the link from the main site has not been updated so is wrong (whether they have stopped using them or changed where the preference can be set or even if you cannot opt out)

I have mentioned it on the feedback thread hopefully they will do something about it.

I am slightly puzzled with the number next to my bookmarked threads. I normally bookmark competitions I like to do and get rid of the bookmark once I have done them. I have 'unbookmarked' everything and it still shows that I have 8 bookmarked threads. When I press on it no bookmarks come up. Wonder how to get the bookmarked threads number down to 0.

It seems to be working fine for me. I had 12 bookmarks showing, unbookmarked one and it's now gone down to 11.

I'm getting this after bookmarking several comps from main competition time page:  each bookmark adds a few more 'new's!

Has anyone managed to sort this yet please?

Something's not quite right with the title word wrapping algorithm. Some/most look OK but some are truncated (circled in screenshot). The other posts have a longer, 3 line length. Screenshot from Chrome on Android. 

I fear this is specific to our Comps Forum and doesn't happen on other boards, so it is unlikely to be seen as a priority by MSE. I think we will have to live with this one.

What is happening is firstly the title is wrapping correctly, and then the comps tickboxes are appearing right justified on the last line of the title. The problem only occurs when the title is exactly two lines long, and then the tickboxes obscure the last 3-4 characters. If the title was 3 characters shorter or 2 characters longer there would be no problem.

I'm having a similar issue mine was showing as 29 bookmarks. I went to my bookmarks and unticked one and it now shows as 30. When I counted them I have 24 bookmarked threads. I've added it to the feedback thread to make them aware.

Mine is showing as 36 but I have only got three.

Same for me but was doing this on the old forum also, saying 8 bookmarked but known existing x
