Welcome to Finity forums beta test

Looks very nice. :)

One (non-graphical) change that I especially like is that the "Latest Forum Activity" box shows more threads.

It always showed 10. If you switch back to the other theme, you can see it has "show more" where you can view 0, 5, or 10. This theme only allows 10, and no way to hide it

You can hide it completely by clicking the "Hide Activity" button just above it on the right hand side of the page. There's no way to reduce it to 5 though... definitely too big at the moment but i'm sure they'll sort it :)

It does look better than Shift (probably because I was bored of that :D) but I think it needs a little bit of tweaking. Maybe new buttons, instead of just the Shift ones with a nicer blue. Also the 'Latest Forum Activity' box looks out of place (too big maybe?).

Finally, I'm interested in this about the forums getting a different skin to the main page when Invision Board 3 arrives... I'm one who hates inconsistency, so I will be interested to see what I think of this.

Alot of people already said what I am going to but:

-Separate the stickies from the non stickies.

-Add the links the control panel drop down tab from the forums header onto the main Neowin site's control panel dropdown.

Just the bugs I found, circled in red... (or ugliness, like the borders)

My main problem was with how Somemanontheinternet broke it in lots of places, instead of his name appearing as Somemanonthein... and therefore fitting the column. Fitting the width to the window would be one way of fixing this.

    • "just $100 per TB"? Just? Are we trying to make this seem like the new normal? Kinda weird to make it sound like that is not a ridiculously expensive asking price.
    • The reviews you refer to mean nothing. Where there is no journalism there is no reason to call the gaming media's opinion pieces "reviews". For GP games there is indeed a metric for success - increasing subscriptions. Which turns in revenue. The only circumstance in which subs do not rise when great is being released is a Game Pass system where the company is close to fully saturated with customers in a subscription. However, in that case as the theory goes you spend aplenty in all kind of games - from shady live service cash cows and customer offending agitprop crap in purple colours to robust and entertaining single player games. And keep a solid level of profitability. Ignoring the simply innocuous but mid games MGS has released primarily of the second kind.
    • Report: Microsoft to use AWS to help GitHub deal with a major surge in demand by Pradeep Viswanathan Thanks to the surge of coding AI agents, GitHub's usage has skyrocketed over the past 12 months. To meet this demand, GitHub started with a plan in October 2025 to increase capacity by 10x. However, by early this year, the company realized that it needed 30x scale. This rapid growth has caused severe strain on the platform's reliability, resulting in several small outages over the past few months. In April, GitHub published a long blog post explaining the steps it is taking to resolve these reliability issues. In the post, the company also confirmed that it is working toward a multi-cloud architecture for better resilience. Today, Business Insider reported that GitHub is turning to Amazon Web Services to help deal with a major surge in AI-driven coding activity. It is important to note that GitHub is still in the process of moving completely to the Azure cloud. The current plan is to move the platform fully to Azure by 2027 so that it can scale better as per developer demand. Therefore, the current decision to utilize AWS might be part of a short-term plan to meet immediate demand. A Microsoft spokesperson confirmed that GitHub is using multiple cloud providers with the following statement: For Microsoft, the decision highlights the operational pressure behind the AI boom. GitHub has to stay reliable for developers at a time when rivals such as Codex, Cursor, Claude Code, and other AI coding tools are gaining attention. And the decision to use AWS for computing capacity seems practical given the circumstances.
    • It's growing on me, however, your right, it make better usability sense if the tabs were bellow the address bar.
    • Qwen 3.6 is better value per dollar, and you can run it locally for free.
