That's much better, thank you.

Now can someone tell me how to set it up so that I don't have to click "mark forum read" whenever I leave the page?

If you start typing a reply to a thread and close your window, it is saved in memory next time you hit the reply button, even across different devices. That's pretty sweet.

Is it possible to hide the filler column to the right of he posts, so there is more viewable area?

Oh hell yes. I had to spend time googling to figure out how to add a filter, but holy hell was it worth the time. Thanks!

This forum is very hard to read now. The font for the titles are darker and easier to see but yet theres just too much white and space in the actual discussion area going on. Im seriously thinking of going to another forum and not coming back. This sucks!

good luck with that.

Edit: I'm upset with myself that this was my 6,000th post.

Still pretty bad and a lot of scrolling on mobile.

The first "Recommended Reading" thread below the last post in this thread is titled "Who wants the old Vortex format back?"... from 10 years ago. (Even the last post is from 2010.)

That section is like a time machine. Yesterday it was recommending threads from 2001! Today, all of them are from 2010. I'm waiting for it to recommend the "fents, crub, brik" thread.

Rennlist does a good job with the recommended threads. Sometimes its so good a match I cant tell I'm in something else.

I'm guessing the recommendations will get better with time. Depending on the algorithm it might not really work with a bunch of migrated data. Who knows.

MK7 forum is like this. Sorta like it after almost a year on there. Dark mode helped and it seems I've got the ads blocked for now................

I get that the old forum was old and this is prettier....but man is it hard to go through posts.

I need to read back a few pages but I feel the old forum made it easier to see which threads were new and which ones I had replied to

I find this to be far better in that respect. If you haven't read it, the title is bold. If you have, it's not. And it actually tracks what you've read rather than just marking everything read every time you log in.
