    Or more to the point, the "Turn beta on" link in the footer of the site.

    I think if we act early, we could possibly get a discount rate for a group purchase of eye bleach.

    I can't believe that anyone sees this as an improvement

    Absolutely ridiculous looking

    Maybe the boards flux capacitor is broken and they're stuck in the 90's?

    That's only for constructive feedback though

    I'm not sure how constructive 'it's shite' is but it's all I've got

    But can we talk about it here too? Considering it's the most popular forum on the site and nobody seems to have seen the link.

    Of course, just letting you know there is that option available where it would be actually reviewed :cool:

    The goggles do nothing!

    Seriously though. It's way harder to read than the current version.

    You can't check your thanks count using it.

    Sure that'd be like Space Invaders not showing you Highest Score.

    :eek: Christ that is bloody awful! Far harder to read too. I hope thats more the touch style beta, because for the non mobile it's hugely retrograde.

    Many worry about Artificial Intelligence. I worry far more about Organic Idiocy.

    No that's really it. It's just one site for desktop and mobile.

    I rely too much on the dark theme now so I won't be going anywhere until that comes in.

    It was much more difficult to read a few months ago than it is now. They listened and made changes. So get your constructive feedback in now while it's being tested.

    I'm glad I have adblock on and never even saw the option. What a horrible experience to endure.

    It's all squished into the middle with mahoosive gray borders for me, I turned it off after about 10 seconds.
