    Do I have a strange definition of usability and readability?
    This is how the forum renders in my browser:

    You might be able to improve the look by using the "page zoom" functionality in your browser. Often

      That is the first thing that stood out in the new design, the strong separation of the content column from the nav/menu making more screen realestate available for reading, even if slightly less wide, which is easier to scan left to right, like newspaper columns. Content column pipe.

      Now if only one could do a continuous paging down to read the next unread without going back a page.

      There is a Pagination setting in the forum settings which can effect infinite scroll. I like infinite scroll, but people who complain about social media like TickTock, say that it is terrible for people aimlessly scrolling through videos...

        There appears to be a new profile setting for the default home view which can be set to Unread.

          Trying "Slate" as the least offensive Dark theme, but might switch back to Dark Reader, as that seems to do a better job of Dark readability than any designers.

            Yeah, "Default" skin + Dark Reader is the least offensive. Still a bit low contrast in areas, but I'll cope.

              In Brave browser on iOS, the “Quick reply” button is hidden behind the post scroll thing. Also, if the keyboard is open, the top reply menu/button isn't visible.

                @humptydumpty Looks like it's viewport is out by the same amount as the size of the tabs. One for upstream reporting.

                  I like it a lot simply for the reason that, when swiping back on the iPad, with the old theme, sometimes the left bar would get stuck and lay over the forum content. You then had to reload the whole page.
