To think I am not the only one who has barely been on Mumsnet this weekend?

[JustWondrin]

I am usually glue to the threads - Active, I'm On, Watching...

If I want an answer to a question, or a product review, anything from how to fix something or how to cook something or what TV to watch, I come on here to find it.

But the site in its present format is simply unworkable for me. I can't search key words, I can't see the photos, I lose track of threads.

I have probably spent ten minutes on here all weekend. AIBU to think I'm not the only one?

Where have the mumsnet emojis gone? Now all I can find are the rubbishy standard ones. None of them are a patch on the mumsnet emojis.

Keeps crashing my phone. Not impressed. And why is there so little text on each line??

I wish it didn’t say today’s date on posts, instead of “Today”. Over the years I’d gotten into the habit of ignoring posts with a date.

If I'm on a favourite thread I have to go to first page, then last page then scroll back. That's tiresome so yes I am on less.

I'm still here but it's not pleasant.

I don't have to keep logging in any more so that's normal.
OPs posts and my posts are different colours again so that's back to normal now.
Threads i've looked at are coloured in the list again now so that's back to normal.
I have an ad blocker on so i don't have pop ups or ads - just acres of white space either side of a thin column of text ... sigh.

It's just very clunky looking, as if someone commissioned the cheapest design poss. for something needed to be used for 2 mins max.

Am I the only one who hasn't noticed it's much different then? The font and style has changed but for the better mostly, sure we'll get used to it.

Premium is great as you don't get the flashing ads but appreciate too expensive for many

@Smidge001 they still work if you can remember the word

I’ve popped in, but the ads and the videos are taking so long to load up on my iPad that I give up within two minutes . It’s no improvement at all .

Nothing looks different on my app but the watch threads & I'm in bits are weird

Oh hang on the emoji list there's a blue M at the end. Click that and they're all there!

Agree, and the page load times are shit too. I hope they up their game fast.

If I scroll too fast the app crashes. Makes it hard to read a long thread

My Ap is working as normal

I’ve not been able to post from the app for days, it’s driving me nuts….nor can I bookmark threads or see any of the threads I’m on. Finally logged into the web version and it’s all fine over here, but I don’t want to have to use this every time!

I just really wish they're reinstate the name of the OP and the time it was posted and the last poster who responded and the time that was, on the thread list.

You could tell so much at a glance from this!

Must admit, having not seen the MNHQ pre-warning thread the night before the change, I did have a false start where I tried to log in using a method I’d never used before - and found myself having to re-register. That was not fun. Eventually realised I simply needed to log in, in the usual way; then set about re-jigging everything back to how I like it.

No idea how the app looks. It didn’t bend to my will years ago so I continued with the mobile site on my phone - which is pretty much the sole way I interact with the site.

Following pretty clear instructions on countless threads I downloaded (some years ago) a thing that blocks adverts. That’s all I know about it, but it’s free and it works. So no big flashing adverts.

The MNHQ thread directed me to the right place in Settings to magic whole threads into one continuous page, just as I had them before.

I like the slightly wider choice of colours; now I’m dark lavender and the OP a rather portentous olive green. Better than the horribly bland pastels we had til last week.

So far all my stuff is intact, bookmarks working, TIO / Watching all working as expected. The vast expanses of white space are uncomfortable to look at, it’s true. But in fact, the only thing that might tamper with my MN addiction is any long term noticeable diminution in posting rate amongst fellow MN-ers …

The link to Active threads in Talk now being in a drop down menu as opposed to being just visible at the top - at least on a phone is REALLY annoying too.

I agree, you certainly could!

Same. Dont like the new ‘lay out’ at all

I only use the app - I couldn't post responses to threads yesterday so I emailed Mumsnet. They said I needed to just log out and log in again. It works now and the app looks exactly the same to me.

The desktop version must be very different from the OP's post.

I don't use the app - I use mobile or laptop.

I can't even search by name of poster, or by key word.

I am going to be so productive at work tomorrow

I logged out and on again and the bookmarks are still not working.

Oooooh! Hadn’t touched Search since The Event.

Yeah … That’s broken. Doesn’t seem to know itself. How am I supposed to seek out 👹👹👹 now?

I've being unable to comment at all, or see posts I'm following since the update the other day. Today I deleted the app then re downloaded it and it's been fine ever since

I can't search for posts anymore. The search function doesn't work anymore.

I also hate the new layout
