I don't mind the layout, but how about using the same font size as before? People didn't seem to have issues with that.

Here's an example. I load this thread in the legacy vs new design. The legacy and I can see 2.5 posts on the screen. In the new design I can see 1 post and 2 lines of the next post, so about 1.2 posts on a screen.

As I said, just change your browser's zoom level.

DP, but it's a bit of a pain to have to do this and I'm assuming I have to toggle around and readjust the zoom- in feature when I go to visit a different site.

I prefer the old format.

I have a small size iPhone.

In my experience, the zoom is remembered per site so it is only a one-time adjustment.

Now the timestamps take too much room, that could be used for the subject line.

Make the Subject field wider, and the timestamps much smaller.

Which page are you discussing?

Its great. I have vision issues and often have to blow up the page to a huge extent on my Mac in order to read everything. Now I don't need to do that. Thank you.

Now about that search function...

I had to change zoom to 33% to achieve the functionality of reading the original site, and my phone will only allow the setting saved for all sites or per tab.

But instead of a two second finger zoom when I first land on dcum, now it's multiple swipes to use the site and the posts are not aligned.

The cursor is a bit large that it is covering letters, making it tricky to edit when I'm zoomed this far in.

This sucks

In this case, I suggest that you bookmark the legacy site and use that.

I really like it on laptop and mobile.

Seems like too much information where it lists the topics. Guess I'll use the legacy version.

The main page:

New vs Old: see the new subject is just as wide as the timestamps. I do like the combined columns, but the old spacing was better:

Ah, I found that maybe its just a problem in Recent Topics (where I usually browse)... other individual forum lists are better.

Okay, I see what you mean there. I'll text some other options but it might be a few days, even a week, before something new is deployed.
