Why has MN changed colour?

It's awful! About 10 mins ago I refreshed a page and the blue banners changed to a much brighter shade, and the OP is highlighted in grey instead of green, and I hate it. It's too bright. What's happening??

Galaxy A55, latest version of Chrome.

Oh no now my posts are a horrible pink colour ☹️.

TheAvidQuoter · 18/09/2025 15:49

It is horrendous. I much prefer the green. Why don't they warn us about such changes.

Somelikeitdry · 18/09/2025 15:49

This shade of blue must have been chosen by someone who dims their screen because it's positively neon, along with flashing and dancing adverts it's all too much for my poor eyes!

TwinklyWrinkly · 18/09/2025 15:49

Oh, no, it's 'orrible! Absolutely 'orrible! I want my previous colours back please!

DeanStockwelll · 18/09/2025 15:49

I wonder what colour my post will be . . . .

I had customised colours and I liked it like that, thanks. This shade of bright blue is fucking horrific!

And what's with this bright burgundy thing saying MY POSTS on...my posts? I know what my posts are FFS, I don't need it pointing out to me what posts I made.

We do, though. I find it useful.

Please can we go back to green MN? The blue is very harsh. I am impressed with PP who had customised the colours.

BettysRoasties · 18/09/2025 15:48

This just hurts my eyes. I thought my phone was playing up.

DramaAlpaca · 18/09/2025 15:47

I've just changed my own posts from that horrid Peach to Grey, but I preferred the Pink I used to use. I suppose I'll get used to it.

MidnightMusing5 · 18/09/2025 15:46

I like the colour , but I don’t like the change - if that makes sense?

It's very bright 🌞🌞🌞🌞

Noshadelamp · 18/09/2025 15:44

Awful,vi thought I'd accidentally turned off the blue shield light.

Needmorelego · 18/09/2025 15:44

I thought something had gone odd 😂😂

Mymanyellow · 18/09/2025 15:43

I thought I pressed something g some how and doneit 🤣🤣

The watch button is now in a really annoying place, if I decide I want to watch a thread I now have to scroll back to page one and click on the OP’s post, how on earth does that make it more user friendly? Answer, it doesn’t.

gamerchick · 18/09/2025 15:41

How many people hate change man.

RightOnTheEdge · 18/09/2025 15:41

The watch button is under the OP's post.

suburberphobe · 18/09/2025 15:40

I hate it too. Hope they go back to the original.

RenegadeKeeblerElf · 18/09/2025 15:40

Way too bright, and quite twee in a way, I hate it.

RNApolymerase · 18/09/2025 15:40

On my laptop the list of threads is hard to read in the bright blue. It's kind of going fuzzy. Yes I probably need glasses but it's worse than it was before.

PestoHoliday · 18/09/2025 15:39

I clicked a page forward on a thread and thought my laptop had gone wrong!

It could be if you are Mac users like me and have installed the new update

I am on browser, on android phone. No update done.
