100+ Head-Fier
On the mobile version can we get back on the main menu the direct link to the "Subscribed threads"?
The navigation is pretty sketchy ...
Thanks,

For documentation's sake:
Thanks to the development team/Head-Fi staff for making like, quote and reply work via mobile site on Safari. However:
I am currently not able to post on the mobile browser Dolphin either on desktop or mobile sites, as the textbox/editor is not able to be highlighted to enter information.
I'll post an update when Dolphin is working with the transitioned Head-Fi, as I'm hopeful it will be working in the future.
I'm not sure whether this has been mentioned, but i miss
1. being able to check users profile to see their reviews.
2. search for users, keyword etc within a thread
I've managed to find workarounds for most things and the mobile fixes have made me happy.
However is there a way any way of seeing most recent updated threads, across the whole forum no matter whether I've posted in or subscribed to them, as I used to like to occasionally browse that way?
@AxelCloris
This thread is great for commenting and getting responses about the change etc., but PLEASE set up a post-by-admins-only thread where y'all can just report on things fixed, changed, etc. It'll be much easier to find short posts there vs trying to keep up with pages of new posts here. You can always post links in that thread back to here where you might give more information. Thanks.
Please implement a useable Search function specific to both threads and categories.
Ironically i couldnt even search this thread to find if someone has posted this suggestion before.... go figure.
Really struggling to see the benefits of this new layout over the older established one, especially with the very poor implementation that this one currently uses.
What have You done head-fi?! The site is now complete rubbish
Don't get me wrong, I'm not just a hater, I just want my favourite forum to be nice to spend time on. Why are going back in terms of functionality? Way back I'm afraid. All the daily used options are now hidden and one need to spend a lot more time to do the same thing.
Does it look polished and modern? I don't think so, it just look cheap and inconsistent.
Precisely. It's like they've gone for the generic dumb-it-down to appeal to the masses route akin to windows 10 vs windows 7. This new site really is utter garbage (to put it nicely).
Seems to be a "one step forward, two steps backwards and blow brains out with a shotgun" as the saying goes..
Was all the user location info lost? I miss seeing that. Most people had that listed. I find it helpful to know a users general location. I added mine back in but people only see it if they click on my profile. Also the user's gender shows by default. How is that relevant? I do happen to be a woman but I do not appreciate being referred to on a forum as "female." Also, I spent time making my headphone list. I think when we click on a user profile the information tab should be the default. One more thing, the phrase that some people have to describe who they are appears at the bottom of the gear list instead of at the top where it used to be. I think it was called "About Me." I found it interesting and it gave personality to the users and the site. Now, although you can still find it if you look, it appears as too much of an afterthought.

How large is your screen?
My laptop's screen is only 11.6 inches and I kind of like the new look of the site. (Well...certain aspects, at least.) I have no problem reading everything, and wouldn't want it all to be in bold.
However...using screenshots from old versions of the site and lining them up with a screenshot of the current version, I have confirmed that the default font size in posts is the same; it's just a different font now.
Could you take and share a screenshot of your post? (So I can see whether it looks different than what I see.)
One thing you could try is something like this. (You'll need to look up other tutorials if you're not using Firefox.)

Stupid question is there no longer a way to just search in a sub-forum? I am guessing it has been covered but I haven't read through this whole thread.
I had 40+ reviews on the old headfi forum. One of them had 195 000 views. I now have 4 reviews on showcase. 100s and 100s of hours of work looks to have been lost forever. Please someone tell me that these will be put back on the site
I am not on a computer,
I am using a galaxy note phone.
Here is how the desktop text look on my screen :
And here is how it look in mobile mode with font increased in Google browser settings to 155%..
It better but the quotes are still tiny, but that's OK I guess as it is a quote.
I've noticed that you can't edit your about page on your profile. Unless I've just missed the button.
It does. It is at the bottom after all the gear etc. It used to be at the top which is more appropriate.https://www.head-fi.org/f/account/ doesn't let you edit your "About You" section?
Well that link works, but how do you get to it from the site? Am I just missing it? I nave been known to miss some very large and obvious things in the past.https://www.head-fi.org/f/account/ doesn't let you edit your "About You" section?
