mostly because I am old and it helps me get right to it.
My second degree is/was in computer but being older it takes me a while to figure things out although I think there are many improvements.
I think the larger text option would be nice and the site looks pretty clean. A little complicated at the moment for me. LOL. But I will get there.
After some time I sort of miss the nice red banners highlighting Titles/Sections and the overall coloring.

In all honesty (can't we get flagged for criticising DU?) I cannot stand the FLASHING "MY STUFF" button! Why the new format? TeamProg Sep 2023 #5

If you go to your account settings, you can disable the flashing. Ptah Sep 2023 #8

You can change the flashing button EarlG Sep 2023 #9

You can turn off the flashing. I didn't like it either. Now it's gone on my interface. TygrBright Sep 2023 #17

Thank you! nt TeamProg Sep 2023 #18

I definitely got rid of the flashing My Stuff style, then... electric_blue68 Sep 2023 #48

If my long time experience on another site is an example: you'll find the Strike feature become a good snark tool 😄 nt electric_blue68 Sep 2023 #7

So far, so good... with one main exception: demmiblue Sep 2023 #16

Ah, interesting EarlG Sep 2023 #21

The ability to Rec individual replies in a thread is a winner...needs more advertising! Alexander Of Assyria Sep 2023 #29

The Greatest Page keeps defaulting to Most Rec'd rather than Most Recent. progressoid Sep 2023 #19

Ideally it should remember your setting EarlG Sep 2023 #24
