Has someone revamp the forum?

Chiyawa

Today, the forum looked a little odd. Has someone revamp the forum?

 

The Pin / Tact icon is hard to spot using dark theme, but other than that, the interface is much cleaner.

Ooo, thanks. I was just surprised some of the interfaces had changed.

Please give more exact feedback. Things can be changed if they are brought up and others agree. Mortis has already changed couple of things due feedback.

The flat style is design choice and comes from forum software developers. Now, if there are more specific things, like contrast issues or something like that, those can be tweaked.

Definitely something I've noticed in other forums too, forum software gets revamped, usually for better usability on mobile = result is everything looks cluttered, becomes harder to read and to navigate, some things break and never get fixed "because the forum software doesn't allow it". 

 

It's one of the reasons forums are dying and people use things like discord instead, even though forums would be better in theory for some things, but they were often improved to the point of being unusable hence no one uses them. 

 

And I'm not talking necessarily about *this* forum, the administration here seems to at least care about a good experience and usability, this is more of a general observation, even though it's partly applicable to the recent update here as well.

Why are you using a dark mode extension rather than the forum's built in dark theme?

Well, you didn't ask me but I'm also using the dark mode of my browser (it's called high contrast mode) just to escape all the grey and also it makes things more readable to me, probably because the contrast is much better)

I mean I would ask for a "black" forum theme, but it's probably not going to happen, heh. 

 

Edit: of course it's messing up some of the spacing and paddings of websites unfortunately, for example Amazon is nearly unusable in this mode...
