This is what I don't like about DU4. [View all]

[question everything]

It is possible that a lot of changes were “under the hood” but the format is tiring.

Mostly, what could be accomplished with one click it is now 2 and 3.

Starting with “My Posts.”. Previously there was one button on the right and when it was yellow, I would hit it.

Same with My Subscription.

Now two clicks: One for “My Stuff” second for posts or subscriptions.

I don’t know why the Editorials and Other Stories was removed from the left column.

I have to select Navigate and then the button where it is. (Where is it?)

This is true for everything, really.

We had a lists on the left side. All I had to do is to click on the down arrow to open the, say, Family, Or Entertainment, Science or Health and others. One click. OK, two, including the down arrow. Now first click is, again, the Navigate and then try to find out where the group of interest is.

The Worst, so far, is Advanced Search. I use it a lot, before posting a story to see if it already on, to search for a DUer and others. Also, it is not clear which forums and groups are included in the “Main.”

I remember, many years ago, we were encouraged to post in the “Editorials and other Stories” and in Groups so not to clutter General Discussion. I suspect that GD will now be cluttered.

As I read this many may not be bothered. I often find interesting stories that I specifically search for appropriate group like birders or gardening. It may not bother many here, though..
