Aayyy! I just realized we can rec individual posts now!

That’s great! I will try to restrain myself but make no promises. I do love to Rec stuff and have wanted that feature for a while.

I’m still exploring and getting used to the different layout/organization but, so far, love the new DU. It’s not all that different and it’s a lot easier to view on my iPad.

Nice job, and thank you, EarlG.

Is there a greatest page of responses? Or is it just a local (within its own thread) count of attaboys/girls to call attention to a response that people liked?

The functionality is still pretty basic but it's the foundation of something we'll be able to build on. Currently, you can see recommended replies by clicking the "RECOMMENDED" button at the top of the reply tree -- it will highlight any replies in the thread that have received 5 or more recs.
