Is anyone else finding Mumsnet almost unusable now?

It's utterly grim. I've been on here since around 2010 I think- something like that, and it's never been worse.
I've had to re-Register and cannot access my messages or anything with my old account/username so very frustrating.

It's so much clunkier now than it was.
The first day one or two were saying we'd probably get used to it / don't like change, but that really hasn't been the case.

The inability to get to where I have read up to when looking at threads I'm on is beyond annoying.

I'm also missing being able to 'refresh' a post when I've had one open a while before being ready to post

Can't understand why they have done this, and then why they aren't listening to MN users.

It's ye olde name for the feminism threads (Feminism and Women's Rights as was) which is now Feminism: Sex and Gender (10/10) and there's also Feminism: Chat (7/10).

Also annoying with the huge enormous grey quote boxes within a post. Just too much. I just want text.

FWR = For Whatever Reason

It's just annoying.

On the 'active' thread landing page the fonts are different sizes? I think the larger fonts are supposed to indicate if a thread hasn't been posted on... But that's not always the case.

I used the app on an iPhone both before and after.

It was a bit glitchy for a few days round the switchover and I had to log in and out and kill the app a couple of times.

But it is fine now and I can't see much difference

The odd thread will seem to overload it and shut the app down - I think if there are multiple posts with photos or videos in them - but generally it has been fine.

There have also been a lot of deleted threads recently, but I think that is because there have been a lot of trolled threads for some reason recently. Nothing to do with the site upgrade.

I keep returning in optimism. Nope, still very slow & loads of white space to scroll through 🙄

I'm coming on much less too, not being able to go back to the same place on active threads is annoying and on the mobile site it jumps around too much

Agree. The zombie threads don’t help either.

What is FWR please? I’ve Googled but can’t figure it out!

It's very slow for me and I'm still getting used to it. Does mean I'm spending much less time here.

Me too, every single new thread etc.

What is annoying me horribly, if you click on a thread to read it, then arrow back as may want to read the next thread below it... It doesn't take me back to the same place anymore . It takes me to the end of the active page and all I see the is blue bottom of the page. It's driving me nuts. So then I have to refresh active and some of the time the thread I wanted to read next isn't in active anymore.

I have definitely been here less as its just pissing me off. I don't want to download the app, I want to be able to use it in Chrome as it is easily as I used to.

Yes I'm finding this v annoying.

Spending much less time on MN as I can’t bump my ‘Watched’ threads so tend not to bother looking at them now.

Its fine for me. Not having any problems at all.
Always access on my mobile though, don't know if that makes any difference.

It’s horrid - don’t like the app either. The search functionality isn’t fit for purpose so I’m largely giving up

The app isn't great. The "I'm on" or "watching" threads often show that they have new posts, when they don't. The threads seem to be in random order & bookmarks don't always work.

I’ve just signed up to another forum so will see how this one goes but everything they’ve done on this one seems to be a downgrade and it was already a forum that was behind others.

I still can’t post on the app at all!

I only use on IOS safari but it’s mostly improved for me. There are a few issues such as, if I watch a thread it doesn’t go to the top of my ‘watched’ I have to scroll looking for it. There are a few other areas not very user friendly but for the most part it’s ok and will hopefully improve

Notifications of new posts on watched threads now just bring me to the first post in a thread. Pointless. So I am visiting MN much less.

I posted elsewhere on this board - I find it fine using it on Chrome on a laptop, but my mobile simply refuses to load the site (I get a bad gateway message). It's actually probably a good thing in that I am spending way less time on Mumsnet, but surely not the intended result of the relaunch.

It’s ok on my phone but on my iPad, I have to click ‘accept and close’ every time I look at something new, so multiple times.
