Bookmark Issue
Hello
I'm not sure if this is something I've inadvertently caused myself or a problem with the forum.
When I went to My Bookmarks earlier it seemed to show every thread I'd ever bookmarked. I removed all but the fairly recent ones and reset the list to show the recently commented ones first.
Unfortunately, every time I've returned since it's reverted back to a random list so that I have to scroll down to find the busy threads I visit regularly.
How can I get the bookmarked threads with the most recent responses to show at the top of the list again? 🤔

Thanks @Skint_yet_Again .
I've also noticed that when I scroll down to the bottom of the bookmarks there's nothing whereas before there were choices to go to recent discussions etc.
This is on my phone, I've not been able to try any other devices yet.

Same here: I'm on my laptop and it seems to be giving me a rather random list of things I've commented on rather than the latest posts on current threads. Odd - but at least we all know it's not just something we did.

same here. Bookmarks when clicked go to recent discussions.

The page is titled 'Recent Discussions' but the list below is actually bookmarks. 🤔

Yeah - I don’t like this change. Adds a few extra clicks each time I want to view recent comments as it seems to go by recently created - and for some inexplicable reason it doesn’t remember the last sort criteria you set.
Can the forum team please implement some kind of way to change the default or scrap itIf you want me to definitely see your reply, please tag me @forumuser7 Thank you.
N.B. (Amended from Forum Rules): You must investigate, and check several times, before you make any decisions or take any action based on any information you glean from any of my content, as nothing I post is advice, rather it is personal opinion and is solely for discussion purposes. I research before my posts, and I never intend to share anything that is misleading, misinforming, or out of date, but don't rely on everything you read. Some of the information changes quickly, is my own opinion or may be incorrect. Verify anything you read before acting on it to protect yourself because you are responsible for any action you consequently make... DYOR, YMMV etc.4 -
Apparently it's deliberate. It doesn't seem to me to reflect the way people actually use the forum.

Surely not! ☹️
Now I notice that posts I've read on the 'bookmarked' list are still showing as new when I've read them. What a mess!

That's ridiculous! There are many long running threads on here that I follow and post on most days. Recently created definitely doesn't work for things like annual challenges or diaries. ☹️

Why oh why does every 'upgrade' make everything worse or cause extra work than how it was before…
I'm very close to giving up completely
