User blog:Super10ZX/New forum layout

Alright, don’t know how long this has been in effect (seems like only a day or two at most), but I finally decided to come back to the forums today and see what was going on and... oh.

I saw the notice earlier that Fandom was going to remove the forum layout in favour of their current thing but... oh my god it’s so bad.

Showing the entirety of the opening posts for each thread just clutters the way everything is set up. Even more space is taken up by most viewed or recently edited wiki pages, which yeah is a thing for the rest of the site, but it still doesn’t take up THAT much. And whatever the newest created threads are seem to take priority, rather then the latest posts.

I’m seeing options to change things around, and at first I thought this was going to be good, maybe fix some of my problems. But then I discovered that just about every link within the forums section no longer works on a mobile device. Want to load more threads to view, doesn’t work. Want to change the layout a bit, doesn’t work.

I know these options would work properly if I used an actual computer, but I’ve done most stuff on this wiki from a mobile device, and needing to change that preference just to keep up with the forums is going to be a headache.

Maybe the whole mobile functionality was a mistake in initially setting this up and it will get fixed, but... ugh.

Sorry, I don’t like to do this type of stuff. But this whole thing just rubs me the wrong way.
