Probably should have mentioned this in my earlier post, but can we please get it to show all posts and not just those from certain sub-forums? I know why it's limited to certain sub-forums but surely it can be made an option in the user cp?

100% Agreed on this.

Keep it, I quite like it. However I will ask that you make it not make the page move down / jump when it loads the list. It's not really noticeable at home, but the much slower connection at work (1Mbit shared between 20 people AND with a remote exchange server), the connection is often saturated enough for their to be a noticeable lag between the page loading and the list populating, which moves the page down.

Keep LFA, but change it so it auto takes you to the last reply of a topic.

The arrow button is way too small

Or at least let us have the option to which we prefer in the CP.

Click "Last by:" ;)

I use the latest forum activity section constantly to reply to other threads (a lot I would never have noticed without it). I'm not one to browse through every sub-forum, just a few of interest. The latest forum activity lets me see other sections I wouldn't normally go to.

Describes my sentiments pretty closely. I'll read things in the LFA in sections I might normally visit or it will remind to check back in on certain topics. I couldn't imagine using the forum without it.

This topic is now closed to further replies.

    • Nothing is stopping you from continuing with your testing cadence. If updates are released every 2 weeks instead of 4, and you test once every 4 weeks, the exact same amount of patches will still be available for you in those 4 weeks. For example: Before 4th week - patch 1, 2, 3, 4 After 2nd week - patch 1 and 2 4th week - patch 3 and 4 Still the same amount after 4.
    • Everyone else has said it. I'm gonna say it - you don't know what you're talking about. I do. I have two laptops. One work, one personal. I have access to two more laptops - both personal. At home I manually update my personal laptop when I see on Neowin that there is an update - I carry on and only apply the updates when I am ready. My work one only updates when my workplace decides to send it - I carry on and only apply the updates (when they actually arrive, which is usually days after the release) when I switch off the laptop at the end of the day as usual. The two other personal laptops only get updated when I get to it which is rarely - the people who own them carry on using them until I get to it and update them. All of the browsers on all laptops are configured to restore the tabs when launched. Google and Microsoft have changed from 6 weeks to 4, and it looks like it's going to move to 2. None of these changes affect how any of these browsers on the laptops are used. Not one jot. My advice to you is stop panicking whenever you see an update. Just carry on with what you're doing. This even benefits you in a way - from your comment you sound like you don't like the changes or the frivolous new features - great - then carry on as before!
    • AMAZON needs to take total accountability for this.
    • Server Summit had a heap of announcements, ADCS changes are baller.
    • Nice, hope they *finally* fixed the issue with the NTFS driver where the system would completely brick during large file copies using the built in driver. It's been broken for years requiring me to use the older, slower, NTFS-3G FUSE driver.
