The DU Lounge
Showing Original Post only (View all)My opinion (which is worth what you paid for it) on DU4 [View all]
1) It's better
2) I find that it is easier to navigate. I know a lot of people don't, and that some bugs need to be worked out
3) The new format will draw younger people to the site
4) The new format is better on a phone
5) I've been involved in developing new systems. My role was mainly to develop and test user interface. I can tell that the administrators spent a lot of time and effort trying to improve the site. I feel that instead of saying that the new version "sucks", we should provide helpful and meaningful criticism.
6) Trust me on this one - a lot of the issues now are because a lot of us have spent YEARS looking at DU3. Our brains just aren't used to the new format. Give it another few weeks, and the new format will look good to you, and the old format will look strange.
My opinion only. Don't jump on me. I'm a delicate flower.
