Thanks, guys.
One new feature seems to be that posts can be "bookmarked". One can check the bookmarks of any user by going on his or her "profile" page (or can only I do that?).
Any other noticeable changes anyone notices?

@klaus the wonderful emojis are back!
(I said that to piss off @Mik )
We do have a choice between different emoji sets.
Would these emojis be better?

Do we have a ‘bastard’ emoji?

Another new thing in NodeBB seems to be the support for RSS. Notice these buttons?
I have no experience with RSS feeds, but they may provide a useful novel interface to the forum, e.g. on mobile devices.
But from what I can see, the feature can also be disabled. I'll leave it on for a while; if nobody is using it, I'll probably disable it to declutter the interface.

It doesn't show the content anymore in the topic preview (which @jon-nyc and others hated).
In fact, I just experimented with it a little and it turns out that the spoiler content is not even loaded from the server unless the button to un-hide it is pressed.

Not for me, Copper.
Maybe it's one of those size vs. percentage things.I do need to decrease the size of the browser window in order to post, as for me it's chopped off at the bottom. If I don't shrink the size, I end up typing where I can't see what I type. It's no big deal, I figured out how to get around the problem (by decreasing the size of the browser window).

I need to shut down and restart the whole server for an update to a core component. This may take a while and I estimate the risk that this will completely ruin the forum to be around 0.272819%.

This thread is topic #191 and today is 20201218.
288.548486 * 191 / 20201218 = 0.272819%.

The top part (Title) of the thread being read is chopped off by the forum header.

I found the problem
If you Ctrl+mouse wheel
you can change the heading configuration and the whole page configurationIt's kind of a zoom function I think.

I use a tablet to get here. For the last several days I can open the forum like always, but if I try to post something it says "error" and won't post. I have to reboot the tablet first. Then when I come back and go to the thread I was trying to post in, click "reply", it pulls up what I wrote and I just simply hit the send icon and it records my post.
Why?
