Apr 8, 2022 at 13:57 | comment | added | jrh | Easiest fix would be to make that text blue or something. Why isn't it blue? The "view more" text used to be. Other stuff in the UI is blue, like "You have no active bounties", "You have not created any articles". Right now it's the same level of emphasis as the time that a thing was posted, which is not clickable and not all that important either. Also I guess while I'm typing this, the whole SO interface feels significantly more "monochrome" now, a bit more color wouldn't hurt honestly. | |
Apr 8, 2022 at 13:53 | comment | added | jrh | I was thinking about it more and it's not just the flags that I find to be less than great. The "view all X [answers, votes, etc.]" sections do not look clickable to me either. I do not understand what is meant to be "clickable" about a small, gray piece of text, among a bunch of more obvious buttons. I think we're beyond the "cheese moving" stage now, even months in I literally just scan right past that text. I get that there's some trend towards "minimalism" or something that made people get rid of the 90s underlines but this new design is going way too far in my opinion. | |
Apr 5, 2022 at 21:44 | comment | added | jrh | @zcoop98 thanks, I found it after poking around and finding the person who complained about the link not being clearly labeled, I upvoted that post, I never would have guessed that was clickable in a million years. I kinda miss the 1990s "underline every link" style now. | |
Apr 5, 2022 at 21:08 | comment | added | zcoop98 | @jrh You should be able to reach them by clicking on the flag count in the "impact" box (although this is admittedly never indicated in the UI in any way). Your flag page is also always reachable via meta.stackexchange.com/users/flag-summary/current | |
Apr 5, 2022 at 18:46 | comment | added | jrh | After using the new layout for several months, I have to say I find it really confusing and hard to use compared to the last one. I can't figure out where to see what flags I've raised recently, that used to be in the last UI but I can't seem to find it now. | |

Jan 25, 2022 at 22:18 | comment | added | Oleg Valter is with Ukraine | @Mari-LouA with answers spanning multiple pages, I think we are firmly in the table of contents territory :) | |
Jan 25, 2022 at 22:13 | comment | added | Mari-Lou A Слава Україні | @OlegValter Behold the English expression "laundry list" shall henceforth be known as table of contents. | |
Jan 25, 2022 at 22:03 | comment | added | Oleg Valter is with Ukraine | @Mari-LouA that's what the table of contents is for :) Which is telling by itself. However, you can see several duplicate posts there already - so clearly not everyone takes the time to scan all the answers | |
Jan 25, 2022 at 21:17 | comment | added | Mari-Lou A Слава Україні | Am I reading this right? 235 answers have been posted? And it seems 50 of them (more or less) are about very trivial imperfections but that's my very personal layperson's view. P.S How does someone know if their feature request, constructive criticism or bug report hasn't already been mentioned by some other user? Who has the time to scan 235 answers-eeek! | |

Jan 19, 2022 at 9:45 | comment | added | Resistance Is Futile | It has been over a month since this has been rolled out and indicators for post status: closed, deleted are still missing. This is huge problem for people who follow post in order to moderate them. This is also a problem low reputation users that are approaching the Q ban or are banned, because they cannot see whether their own questions are closed or not when they visit the list and would like to improve posts. | |

Jan 14, 2022 at 12:12 | comment | added | Rob | Dan, is it intentional that the number of "helpful flags" is not shown on other user's profiles in the Activity tab (in the "Impact" box) - I can still see my own but we used to be able to see the number cast by other users (exact number). --- We can guess the number of flags roughly by looking at their badges, so why hide the exact number (which sometimes exceeds 500, and the ability to guess via the badges available). Thanks. | |

Dec 13, 2021 at 17:19 | comment | added | hkotsubo | I really don't understand your... obsession with useless white space. Since the infamous line-height change, every single layout change seems to introduce more and more useless blank space everywhere. And SE keeps doing it, regardless all the negative feedback. I saw the new page just today, and OMG, do we really need all this padding and spacing everywhere? I downvoted this and agree with all answers below that are complaining about this excessive spacing | |

Dec 9, 2021 at 13:03 | comment | added | Dharman | I have changed my upvote to a downvote. Initially, it looked like you were going to provide improvements, but after it went live and I saw how bad it looked like I change my vote. I think the majority agrees that more whitespace is a bad thing. We want to see as much information as quickly as possible. We don't want to scroll or press secondary buttons to load more content. | |
Dec 9, 2021 at 11:48 | comment | added | PM 2Ring | @Andrew The new layout isn't exactly ideal on a phone screen, either. Eg, comments get chopped rather short, with no way to expand them (of course you can visit the page the comment comes from, but that's pretty tedious when you're doing a comment search). I used one of your comments as a demo in my answer, I hope you don't mind. | |

Dec 9, 2021 at 11:35 | comment | added | Sebastian Simon | @Jyrki-NoShog9-NoSE “If I increase the width of the window all I get is more white space” — Which is why most of us don’t consider this redesign to be responsive, but mobile-only. “When this plan was first announced why was it not PROMINENTLY explained that it applies also to users others than those on mobile devices?” — I knew it was coming to desktop. That’s what responsiveness is supposed to mean: one unified design for all devices. The first answers to the announcement (from before it was shipped) already suggested to decrease the whitespace and increase the information density. | |
Dec 9, 2021 at 10:35 | comment | added | DavidG | A serious question: Was there any consideration given to UX and not just UI? The new design looks pretty but much of it is super hard to use now.

Dec 8, 2021 at 22:24 | comment | added | Jyrki_Shog9Supporter | When this plan was first announced why was it not PROMINENTLY explained that it applies also to users others than those on mobile devices? I'm sure you would have gotten most of today's feedback in due time that way rather than having to face today's critical sh*#¤%storm. I feel bad about airing my displeasure in a non-constructive way, but I cannot help it. This update is simply awful on my laptop. Even before the update there was too much whitespace on the sides, and now it is much worse. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 22:13 | comment | added | Jyrki_Shog9Supporter | The above was an optimistic view from me. My list of tags now takes 11 pages according to the profile page. But each of those 11 pages requires scrolling worth approximately 4 screen heights. It used to fit on 4 pages. So the information density dropped by a factor of 11 :-( What used to be available upon request by right-click (or was it just mouse-over), if needed, is now displayed prominently. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 22:03 | comment | added | jfriend00 | As someone who typically spends hours a day in stackoverflow and a lot of time watching activity in my reputation page (609k reputation), the newest changes are way less usable. I work on a 36" screen and it feels like there's only about 1/3 the amount of information on my screen now and things always start out collapsed, causing more clicks to see less information. This is a worse UI in all regards on the desktop with a decent size screen than what we had before - please put it back. I actually thought some setting must have been accidentally changed, but no, I'm stuck with this. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 21:10 | comment | added | Jyrki_Shog9Supporter | When viewing my answers why would I need to see more than three lines of text per answer? The question title, and my vote count suffice. The vote count (something I find interesting) is now miniscule, and the extra text now shown is largely useless to me. If that extra contains a displayed equation, it consumes a lot of space and there is room for possibly only 4 answers per screen. I would like a compressed list of 25, please. Make it a design goal to minimize white space. 20 per cent max. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 20:50 | comment | added | Jyrki_Shog9Supporter | @Andrew Thanks for the explanation. But I want it to also "respond" to available extra width. If I increase the width of the window all I get is more white space. I want more information. The list of tags used to fit on 4 screens. Now it takes 11. Just go back to the old. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 20:46 | comment | added | Andrew | @Jyrki-NoShog9-NoSE responsive design means the look, layout, and sometimes content changes based on the space available to display it - it has nothing to do with user control, other than you can control the size of your browser window. For example tiling your browser to half your screen's width, the summary section goes from 3 1/3 width side by side boxes to 3 full width vertically stacked sections. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 20:21 | comment | added | Jyrki_Shog9Supporter | Like others said, this is a major turn off. Horizontal goes vertical? But I am using a 16:9 screen. Exclusively. Horizontal is a desirable. And I thought responsive means roughly the same is easily configurable by the user. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 19:43 | comment | added | Andrew | This design is perfect... for vertically oriented screens around 3 inches wide. The problem is the bulk of use on this site isn't on mobile devices, it's on desktop. People are asking questions and seeking help while coding. The old design was far better on desktop screens - this one takes up too much space, uses too large of fonts, and requires a lot of horizontal eye tracking and vertical scroll to read anything - not to mention much of what was on the page is lost, like seeing more than 5 tags or accounts. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 13:48 | comment | added | Makyen | @JeffZeitlin That's not how the question/answer section order works. The display order of those sections varies by user, not by site. The system displays whichever of those sections first which it feels is more important for that user. This was the behavior in the old layout too. I didn't notice it until 1.5 years ago when I became a moderator on SO and started visiting a lot of profiles. I, eventually, added some CSS to maintain a consistent order for all profiles, because having them in different orders is a pain in the rear when looking at more than one profile. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 13:12 | comment | added | Tinkeringbell Mod | @JeffZeitlin This seems it may be intentional (don't know if useful): For users that have more questions than answers on a site, it looks like questions are the first to be shown (e.g. meta.stackexchange.com/users/260800/ooker?tab=topactivity shows me questions first too) You have more answers than questions everywhere, except Linguistics. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 13:02 | comment | added | Jeff Zeitlin | The deployment isn't even consistent - in all of the stacks that I'm a member of except Linguistics, Answers are shown first; on that one exception, Questions. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 12:33 | comment | added | Steve Summit | I downvoted because: (1) The new design is, at first glance at least, terrible: vastly less information per unit area, to no apparent benefit. (2) The oblivious disconnect in tone between "We implemented this awesome new feature we're sure you'll love, isn't it great?" versus the nearly unanimous actual feedback the feature is receiving. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 10:34 | comment | added | Skillmon | Everything is way too big, when I open a profile page I practically see nothing of interest to me because everything is big enough to read it from across the room, but nothing is really shown! This doesn't make anything more clear or less cluttered, it just adds to scroll wheel wear! (this is on a 1600x900 14" screen) | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 10:21 | comment | added | Tinkeringbell Mod | I archived some of the conversation about comment moderation on this post/MSE to chat. I invite other people that want comment moderation on MSE explained to them to drop by this chatroom so we won't drown out any potentially useful feedback by these conversations.

Dec 8, 2021 at 10:06 | comment | added | Shadow Wizard | Late for the party, but I'll explain my downvote: you made awesome work with the view for mobiles and small screens, but in the process made it appear way worse than before on PC with big screen, which is what I happen to use. Enormous amounts of whitespace, and overall feeling it's a page designed only for mobile. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 9:53 | comment | added | Tinkeringbell Mod | Comments on this post took the usual (wrong) direction, so it's time to remind everyone: "I hate this", "you suck" and other personal attacks are not how constructive criticism of a design change is supposed to look. If you do think you have anything constructive to add, see if it isn't already posted here, and consider writing an answer, the character limit there gives you much more room to be constructive than the comments. Remember the Code of Conduct and keep the subtle put-downs out of these comments. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 9:43 | comment | added | Ted Lyngmo | @Glorfindel That's a good list of issues that people have noticed with the new activity page. Consider changing back to the old activity page in a week and create a similar list for things people find annoying. "The new activity page had this and that which I really liked" etc. Then implement those things if there's a broad support for them. | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 5:38 | comment | added | Steve Bennett | Man, I read this whole thread several times a few weeks back, and somehow it had never dawned on me that any of this would affect me on desktop. It was framed as improving something about mobile users, so I didn't worry about it too much. Now that it's been deployed to SO...yeah, I hate it. It feels big and clunky and mobile-like, even though I'm on a 4K monitor. So much less information :/ | |

Dec 8, 2021 at 2:22 | comment | added | Retired Ninja | I use the all actions view to look at the comments I've made so I can check questions that interested me and see if there was a resolution. This new view is much less usable for me than the old one. Everything is way too tall. Why does the time need it's own line? Put that next to the type of action. The votes view is also full of wasted space. I don't see a way to see individual flags I've raised either, just the number of helpful. Not a fan of this new layout. | |
Dec 8, 2021 at 2:20 | comment | added | Unconsidered | Please explain what the yellow colour for some of the post in the "Bookmarks" means. If it's the fact that there was a change to the post since I last checked it out, then that completely fails to be conveyed. And if it really is the case, please let us get to turn it off. I mean I really don't want to have to load every single one to get rid of the yellow. One of mine has the date of "Aug 24 '08 at 5:19", and my account is not that old, so I'm really unsure what it is. | |

Dec 7, 2021 at 19:29 | comment | added | TylerH | Somehow I missed this thread entirely until just now. With features like flexbox and grid solidly supported for a few years now, can you speak to why desktop users are forced into this one column layout now? It probably works great for mobile users, but it's a clear and huge regression for people with bigger screens, like laptop and desktop users. I mean, here is a comparison (granted, MSE vs SO, but still): i.sstatic.net/QNRcM.png On the old layout, I can see 6 full sections. On the new layout, I can see... 1 section and a little bit extra. | |
Dec 5, 2021 at 22:57 | comment | added | chivracq | @SebastianSimon, yeah-yeah, I know of course, and it's "cute" to see 'Stack' and 'SO' "experiment" with all new Syntax and Func that don't work anymore in v[-2] Browser Versions. (And I use FF55 "only" because my Default/Prod Browser (PM26, not even listed on that Support Page) works even worse since about 1y, ah-ah...! Can't even upvote anymore in that one, regardless of Rep...) [Specialist in Web-Automation, I have "my Reasons" to not use any of the Browsers listed..., I rely on "other" Technologies... => Check my Profile (if you can read it...!) for more Info...] | |
Dec 5, 2021 at 22:19 | comment | added | Sebastian Simon | @chivracq Note that Firefox 55 is not supported, officially. | |
Dec 5, 2021 at 22:16 | comment | added | chivracq | Voting "System" is a bit biased, I can only cast Upvotes but no Downvotes (on Qt + Answer(s)), because Rep<100. But I don't like this upcoming Change: Too much Vertical-Scrolling... And I suppose the 'Activity' Tab will then probably soon become as "unusable" as the 'Profile' Tab (in FF55) where only the first 5-6 Lines are visible before greying out and where I need to read the Content from the HTML-Source as the 'Responsiveness' cannot be switched/toggled off for that Tab... | |
