Just adjust your text size.

Easiest way to adjust text size is to press the Ctrl key while scrolling the mouse scroll wheel

whew. That’s a disappointing thread to read through. Lots of people are upset with a free product I gather?

the most important line of the thread to me was the OLD SYSTEM doesn’t get SECURITY UPDATES.

y’all. There was NO choice to change, whether or not you know internet stuff, no security updates is scaaaaaaaary.

OK, I'll keep checking back. That was the hook for me - with just a glance, 5 to choose from and they were always changing. It was like a box of chocolates...

I do agree, that was my favorite part of the site and what I usually checked. However, I think both of us need to realize that was probably designed for first time visitors and as a user on the site, there was always much more for us! See below...

Looks ok to me, laptop here, definitely will take some getting used to...
my badges are gone.....have I been stripped?
...but already got my new shortcut tab setup on browser to go right to watched threads.

Hang in there staff......and members, be patient.

OMG YOURE TELLING ME THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A WATCHED THREAD LINK?
Ok. I’m done yelling. I think.

but seriously. Does this mean I can keep track of all the threads I’ve missed notifications on and I stop getting them? OMG. I’ve been USING BYC WRONG.

I just think it'd be nice if it wasn't like:
BTW WE CHANGED EVERYTHING YOU KNOW AND LOVE KTHXBYE (like google did to gmail)
And was more like:
Hey sweetie we were thinking of revamping. What do YOU want us to change?

Well.... that kind of exact post has been around for a while.....

(Sorry, I just wanted to use the cartwheel. It’s my favorite....)

One other thing that is very noticeable is the link in the left hand personal pane has lost the link to coop pages. Will this be returning?

It's back.

Can you take a screenshot of your screen?

Omg. No iOS. One day?!?

Possibly, if apple decides to adopt web standards.

I don't see that little lightning bolt on mine. Just a Search button

The "What's new" tab on desktop should do the same thing as the lightning bolt on mobile.
