Totally new layout on my Mumsnet page this morning, and I had to sign in. Now it all looks completely different. Anyone else?

It’s changed several times since I joined. This is pissing me off. I have to keep signing in. I click on a post and it just takes me to the topic. I like mumsnet. I normally ‘pop in’ several times through the day, a bit like Facebook. If it remains as is, I probably won’t.
lt is too clunky. I can’t be arsed signing in all the time. I’m lazy.

It told me that someone else has my e-mail address already - well, yes, so I'll go away and waste time some other way.__

That's because you were trying to login under the register part, you need to click to login.

I wonder if there is a poll, I find it really jarring- particularly the nesting quotes bit, the font, the whiteness…. Awful

Interested in this thread?

Another thing, previously if you were in a thread and someone posted after you, you could click their post. Now you have to go to the whole thread. Ball ache.

I like it, looks cleaner....but Safari doesn't like it. Won't let me post and have had to swap to Firefox.

No idea

costamum · 20/04/2022 20:50

I think they're going for a Reddit style layout..nested quotes and all. Looks messy and not very user-friendly.

Jojoanna · 20/04/2022 20:51

It’s dreadful

Shitzngiggles · 20/04/2022 20:57

The nesting quotes or whatever it's called is awful, so untidy.

Should not have got through testing (was testing carried out?!)

Appalling to go live when it's such a mess.

Vulpius · 20/04/2022 21:44

Whoever knew that "nesting quotes" was the name for that fucking irritating thing.

Sorry, MN, it has been a fun 20 years, but this "improvement" is diabolical and I will not bother any more.

echt · 20/04/2022 21:46

What I don't get is why they creamery didn't have checklist of everything the old system did and then tick off whether it had been replicated/replaced/actually fucking worked in the new.

My bug bear is you can't see last poster on a thread, only a number, so no way of knowing if the thread has been added to. Did MN sit down and think, let's get rid of that, no-one uses it.

It's like they let the work experience kid loose.

echt · 20/04/2022 21:47

Clearly, not creamery.🤔

And getting rid of the old emojis.

I can.

I like the nesting quotes.

On the minus side I've had to log in three times today and there are loads of adverts even though I'm a Premium member. I expect it will sort itself out.

Usernamealreadyexists · 20/04/2022 22:07

Fucking hate it. I liked that you could type a page number in a box above the post. I don’t like seeing a list of page numbers now - very cluttered.

I loved the arcane version with all my soul. It felt like home I’m a way. Fuck this.
