The new MSE forum. Good - Bad.

IvanOpinion

MSE needs to fund a User Experience professional because what they have created has so many usability flaws - typical of what you get when you leave design to the intern.

Is there going to be a formal feedback request on the new design from the Board operators or whoever on the 'management team'.

If not, is there any way of making them aware of this feedback, so that they are at least aware of some of the concerns.

Horrible!  What on earth was the problem with the old forum?

Let's see what sort of article MSE releases in relation to this "upgrade", if any.

Have left my bullet points on the feedback request link, but really bullet points is all it promotes in the survey. Reminds me of the old post-it note sticker board we had at work for workshop activities.

I have already posted a few comments to the above yesterday. Probably more likely to get things changed this way.
Apart from the issues raised, possibly worth just saying that at least the new format functions, which the previous attempt at an update did not. Plus there was an update two or three years ago and every body moaned about that, but I for one can not remember what the old one was like, or what was supposed to be wrong with the new one, which everybody now likes/misses.
Hopefully with some tweaks in response to feedback the new one can be improved .

Some people have asked about finding their Favourites.
Go to 'All Boards' in the Quick Links box on the right.
Then just below the right side of the search you will see 'View' with a dropdown box. In the dropdown box click on 'Following'

Another example of an 'upgrade' that is worse than what it replaces. have this with my Opera browser all the time. But at least we get to give feedback here. So will we return tomorrow, and everything is back the was it was? I doubt it.

Go to 'All Boards' in the Quick Links box on the right.

In browser mode on my android mobile, found this in the hamburger menu to the left

It makes me feel sick... I can see coloured blobs when I look at the screen like I get at the start of a migraine. I'm finding it impossible to look at the site longer than a few minutes
