What do you think of the forum redesign?

Feeling mixed. As @busmark_w_nika commented, it's just a matter of habit/getting used to. But one thing I truly wish was there in the new design was searching through old discussions. It's a great feature - helps in finding related discussions.

What would you want it to look like or do that it doesn't do now?

I think it is a matter of habit. It is kinda like Reddit discussion.

I need a few more days to comment on this, but I raise my hand for the Community thing than Topic Forms.

I like it, it is quite intuitive. However, an issue that im facing (maybe tho is something from my end) is that after i exchange a few responses with someone in the thread, I get the "invalid content detected" error and I cannot respond directly. Not sure why it is happening. And i dont think it is about the actual context of my response, cause If i reply the same exact text as a completely new comment, it gets posted :P weird !

Getting Reddit subs vibes. I would experiment with the subs (topics) Maybe like: coding / marketing / design. Hipster / Hacker / Hustler.

The forum redesign appears to be a strategic move towards enhancing user experience, potentially improving navigation, readability, and interaction through more intuitive interface design and modern aesthetic elements. While aesthetic updates are promising, the true measure of success will be how effectively the new design supports community engagement, knowledge sharing, and seamless user interaction.

It definitely feels somewhat similar to reddit. Will need some time to get used to having the topics on the left side vs the previous right side.

Confusing like every change at first. I'd have to be here for a while to properly judge.
