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

Really don’t like this new set-up at all. Please don’t do it to Gransnet.

This nesting quotes thing is hideous.

I quite like it😂

youkiddingme · 20/04/2022 21:51

ok

Oh the nesting thing (who knew?) doesn’t show up on the app.

Interested in this thread?

Then you might like threads about this subject:

Really missing all my watched threads 🙁 they’ve all disappeared and all thread I had open as tabs in the background have all now automatically gone back to page 1 which is annoying.
It’s too white and very very basic, I thought it was a glitch to begin with; have they cut their IT budget or something 🤔

I wonder what happens when the lines move so far over to the right that there is no room for the text?😂

Hobnobswantshernameback · 21/04/2022 09:09

It's shit and the privacy pop up every fifteen seconds makes the site virtually unusable

Squiff70 · 21/04/2022 11:29

It's an absolute pain in the arse. I keep getting new notifications for threads I've posted on even though there are no new posts on them. I'm also reading notifications and they come back hours later to notify me of the same bloody thing.

What the hell were you thinking MN????

Also, dunno about the desktop site as I haven't seen it yet but on my phone, the website (not app) looks suspiciously like Facebook, even down to the number of notifications highlighted in red on a blue background.

Arrrrrgggghhhhh!

Well there’s only one way to find out … 😆

Bluesheep8 · 21/04/2022 11:42

It's dreadful. Far too much effort needed and trending is out of date. At least I won't be wasting loads of time on here any more

It may take a while😂

Interested to see if there's a quote limit too. 😀

DrBrennerFan · 21/04/2022 17:53

I hate it you can’t find things easily.

LadyEloise100 · 21/04/2022 19:09

@RaraRachael

I don't like it at all. There was nothing wrong with it so why change it?
I agree.
Norgie · 21/04/2022 19:21

It's terrible. An assault on my eyeballs.
Plus I keep having to log in each time I return and the nesting thing is beyond irritating.

ozymandiusking · 21/04/2022 19:34

Whats this nesting thing?

Norgie · 21/04/2022 19:43

@ozymandiusking It's where a load of posters quote each other, as demonstrated above.
It's beyond irritating, seriously.

ozymandiusking · 21/04/2022 19:49

Thanks Norgie

It’s annoying but a necessary experiment.

It makes a pretty pattern if nothing else 😆

I think it may just go on forever....

PurpleToeNail · 21/04/2022 20:11

Does anyone know why your own comments are the same colour as the OP? It makes it more difficult surfing through a thread.

PurpleToeNail · 21/04/2022 20:12

Pmsl at @LostForWords2021

xsquared · 21/04/2022 20:29

I don't like it.

They still can't put a bloody edit button on after all these changes!

Nah, it’s got to reach that right hand border at some point then the whole of mumsnet will implode...
Oh I just noticed it peaked at @Clawdy’s comment then has retreated to the left again, wth? 😆

Oh no I got it wrong, it started with Clawdy’s. This has frazzled my brain.
Sorry, I’ll stop now 😄
