You got to be kidding! How cumbersome is that, especially if you are on mobile? Didn't anyone realise that the "search within thread" feature was probably the most used feature in the whole site?
Actually, when it comes to keywords, searching within the thread on-site just brought up random results for me instead of giving what I was searching for. The only way for me to get exact results was by using a search engine.
As for mobile...I don't even use phones, so I don't understand the needs or mindset of mobile users. If I want to do something, I use a computer.
The first day I saw the new update, I was shocked by the change. The navigation was one thing, but I couldn't live with the obtrusive adds. I was seriously reexamining my dedication to Head-Fi, as I think many others were.
But fair is fair, the Head-Fi team seems to be working very hard and listening to the feedback. I can at least post in Google Chrome again, and the add at the top and to the right seems to be gone in the threads (at least for now). Sure there is still a lot of work to be done, but if they somehow manage to make the access to subscriptions more fluid I can already live with the change.
We've been b*tching here a lot (which I think was absolutely justified), but it's also more than fair to compliment them on the progress. I feel confident they will be making some major strides for the layout in the coming week, taking the community's feedback into account.

Btw, does anybody know how to get back to the mobile view on mobile? I pressed desktop view by accident when I was trying to search for something and can't get it back..

My impression in a nut shell:: If I did not know what Head-fi is and just visited the head-fi.com page it would be my first and last visit. I would not even notice it was about audio.
The light gray font is very hard to read on a white background. How about going with black? Also, I don't want to have to scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "My Profile" to see the list of my subscribed threads. How about putting that right on top?
