Forum Suddenly Switched How Named Are Displayed?

I'm using the EN World app, and it is completely unchanged by all of this.

I'm surprised someone could think it "atrocious". Basic yes. Inflexible, maybe.

But to me it's fast, with a large readable font, with no need to zoom back and forth. And the ads are surprisingly unintrusive.

Are there perhaps more than one app, and you're talking about some other atrocious app?

I'm guessing this is how the forum works now at least on desktop

Have the same problems. Ctrl+F5 didn't resolve this issue.

Cuz [MENTION=1]Morrus[/MENTION] wants it this way and doesn't need to explain to anyone why he changes things?

As of right now, the forum pages are also missing the links to later pages of long threads (i.e. you can't go directly to the last page of a thread anymore).

I have to say that these minor changes are starting to wear on me. I don't like the new name layout (especially in mobile mode) because of the way it breaks up the thread. It's not the end of the world. I was disappointed when the number of views a thread got was no longer visible, but it wasn't a huge deal. Now, to get to the end of a thread I've read most of, I have to click-load-click instead of just click. Individually, none of these are enough to make me stop visiting ENWorld. Collectively, they are a number of small steps in a direction that doesn't please me.
