The Doghouse gone weird for me

I've had issues in the past with following links within threads has opened up in the app which I don't have on my phone.
So if I want to read something I click "watch" in the app, close down that page, and then I can read it on my usual Web page.
But today when I've clicked on the doghouse topic, it's not showing the usual list of thread titles, but is similar to the app, just not purple, but when I click on a thread it takes me to the app.
I don't use the app because I struggle to read text on a dark background, plus I can't highlight the OP's posts.
No other topics are doing this for me.
I've attached two screenshots showing the difference.

Hello @CherryogDog and @Janetsmug - we're currently testing a new topic page layout called ‘OP view’. The aim is to make it easier for users to understand what a thread is about.

Initially, it was only on the Gardening topic, but we've now made ’OP view’ available on some other topics, including The doghouse.

This change will only be on mobile and desktop, OP view is currently not available in the apps.

From initial feedback, you told us that you'd like to be able to switch between OP and classic view. You'll still be able to do this by using the icon on the page, but now you can also choose a default view in your Talk settings.

We appreciate your feedback so feel free to add it to the Site stuff thread.

Mumsnet makes parents' lives easier by pooling knowledge, advice and support on everything from conception to childbirth, from babies to teenagers.

Thanks for letting us know, OP.
We'll come back to you about the links in the app.
