    Well, the old UI can still be used to read the forum, but I have just discovered that I cannot start a new thread or reply or edit a post with the old UI anymore (and that's fine by me). :man-shrugging:

      Quoted text is in a larger font - that's a good thing.

      Toolbars are on the right and left of the main screen. Not sure about that.

      I don't like it either.

      I guess we'll get used to it.

        I don't like how much screen real estate is wasted on this new design.

        Maybe it can be improved by configuring the new theme. Let's see...

          OK, so it turns out our old theme is still available in the new NodeBB version. It's just no longer the "default" theme.

          I assume you guys like this version better?

                "This" is what you see right now.

                          Don't know if it's related to the new design, but I can't see any video posted by George: there's only a blue ribbon on the side. Video's posted by other members are no problem.

                                      @Klaus twitter videos do not appear correctly (as in Boris's post above). However, reloading the page seems to fix that - at least for me.

                                        Also, when I try to reply or enter a new post using my iPad, I get a huge screen where I can enter text. However, there's no place to click "submit". I can't scroll to the bottom, because it never ends. In the background, I can scroll past posts, but not see them because of the huge white box.
