    @vic_sf49 how have you got the dark theme? That's a lot easier on my eyes and how I view other forums via my phone.

    We don't need the big red + button.
    The report button I've accidentally caught a few times.
    Having badges / forumite takes up valuable space.
    If I'm lucky I get two posts to read per scroll.

    I think 'most recent' is too small and doesn't stand out enough

    I'm happy enough with it now on my MacBook as there is no annoying Red disc with a white plus sign that's on my iPad

    Incidentally, what is the big red blob actually for other than to irritate ? I'm afraid to press it in case it's self destruct! 🤣

    Lol 

    It's a choice new thread or new poll, that's it. Can't see the point it being there, the choice could be in the side menu

    As with a lot of content designed for mobile users they need it to be attractive to 3 year olds. Remember when
    you first went to school and got a gold star. Maybe it is just me but it seeems like they want to push everyones
    IQ's down to that level and keep it there.

    Guessing most of us grew out of badges and gold stars when we started at the big school?

    That gets my vote for post of the day.
    So true for almost every forum that you visit these days.
    Give that member a gold ........Oh wait a minute, maybe not.

    I am back on my phone for the first time since the launch day of the new layout and have come across a new niggle. This red circle in the bottom right is is exactly the wrong place for a right-handed person when scrolling through the forums or a thread. It's even more annoyingly placed than the expanding header at the top of the page for accidently triggering without meaning to!!
