Yeah, seems unnecessary to me. People were crying out for PS5 etc areas on the old place, but that's only because it had the pointless PS3 and 4 (?) sections. I use a bookmarked recent post page, but if you want to look for something specific it gets a bit messy.
Just condense it to one section for each manufacturer now imo.

I know we've been trained to not use the search function but it does actually work here if you are looking for something specific.

Folks keep on talking about clicking on the “New” button to go to latest posts in mobile but I have never seen it / don’t seem to have it - what am I doing wrong

Not clicking the new button would be my guess about where you're going wrong The text that says "new" to the left of a thread's title is clickable.

It only takes you to the newest post that you haven't seen though, not the last page.

Deffo looks better with avatars turned off.
Much cleaner looking.
Mobile mode grates me but I guess it’s stuck as it is until more options are made available to change it.

yeah I noticed the ads today. Not so bad on desktop because I adblock the shit out of the entire internet, but annoying on mobile

Not sure about DT, but mobile now has one of those adblock detector pop-ups, which can be bypassed with a bit of ublock jiggery pokery, but are quite annoying.

Is there anyway to have a back to forum button at the bottom of threads? Or a back to recent button?

This might be controversial but: if everyone on ProBoards used an adblocker, they'd go out of business and we'd end up homeless again.
Edit: I think I'm trying to make the distinction that it's not the same business model as the EG forum, which wasn't profit-driven unless you considered it part of the main site (which they clearly didn't), and therefore had different considerations when it came to the use of adblockers.

Looks like it's being looked into, based on a post at the old place

The forum I’d made was on my own server and had no ads :-(
But I’ll pay, too.

Should I avoid posting Twitter links? The embed seems a bit cumbersome and huge on mobile
(See the covid thread or the woke thread for recent examples)

Is it possible to make clicking on the thread always do the same thing as clicking on that New button? Seems like it should be the default behaviour

Would it be possible to have the "Prev, Next and page no." thingies row at the bottom of pages on the desktop view too please. It's great having them at both the top and bottom on mobile view and would be nice for dextop as well, coz pressing page up is a lot of effort. Ta.

I don't suppose there's any way to put threads on 'ignore'? That's a feature from Discourse that I appreciated the most, as it let me filter out all the niche subject megathreads. They get multiple posts per day so they never leave the Recent page, and I have no more interest to read the first post than the last, so I'd rather they just not show up at all in Recent.
I suppose an alternative would be to bookmark all the threads I DO have an interest in, but that makes it harder to keep up with new interesting threads that might show up.

Not to mention stickie'd threads with important forum-ending news that can be easily missed if you only use bookmarks... I've gotten used to scrolling past and ignoring threads I'm not interested in, but I would like an option for more threads per page. It's not the early 2000's any more, I promise my browser won't be slow to load a few hundred at a time.
