Who else thinks that this new format is terrible?

I like that they don’t show the total number of votes. It encourages more engagement.

But I don't like how I can't access my favorite forum sections (Starting Out; Buying & Selling; House Flipping; Real Estate Deal Analysis and Advice; REI News & Events) with ease. They're buried down in this tedious drop-down menu.

There is also less whitespace so it makes it more difficult on the eyes (compared to the previous Google-ish format that so many are attracted to).

Also, I noticed that when you click the title link of the post, it takes you directly to the post and when you back out, it refreshes to the top of the section which is frustrating if you're buried deep in the section. When you clicked the title link of the post with the last formatting, it opened a brand new window which made organizing the posts you wanted to look at easier and also kept your place when scrolling through the section opposed to taking you to the top of the section.

I also hate that there aren't links for pages. Instead you have to endlessly scroll to find newer posts on a very long OP.

Agree. Another "change" just for the sake of change, without any improvement and clear goal. Btw, what in the world happened with the "Followed forums" option that was my favorite one? Cannot find it anymore.
