    We added:

    • Gzip for the assets -> Hopefully our forum respond faster
    • Profile: Latest and Best posts now switch the side. Now we're able to see the latest one first

    @vicnguyen Looks like the gzip trick did help make things faster.

      @ollipuu
      When we go to our personal posts history (by clicking on out avatar) we are now presented with a whole section of Best posts made by JonB and only scrolling down do we later find Latest posts made by JonB. I cannot believe the Best Posts is really a useful addition, seems like somebody put it in just for the sake of it! I want to always see latest posts in date order, just like it always did, don't most people...?

      Umm, the order now seems to have reversed, I get Latest posts before Best now....

      But, but, but... The old way (latset posts only) was an expanding, scrolling list. Now it is limited to the last few posts :( Often i have go scrolling through all my latest posts to find one. Now I can't, i could not even find this post to reply to! Please don't tell me I hahe to use Search now instead??

      Is there any way to just have the old endlessly scrolling list of posts in date order? :)

        You can click on the posts counter below your picture or click the 3 dot menu and Posts in there.

          Ah ha! Perfect, thank you. So it's no longer quite the "default" view but at least I can get there :)

            I have subscribed to the daily email digest. Since the update that does not work anymore. I have toggled this setting already, but that didn't help. (And no, it is not in my spam folder instead.)

            Any chance to fix that? Does anybody else have this problem?

              Thanks for all the feedback. Nothing has been changed intentionally, every possible change comes from the NodeBB upgrade itself. But we'll look if those changes could be easily (setting/template overwrite/hook) reverted back to original behaviour. If we need to edit the forum core, we'll most likely won't do it as each core change will make the future upgrades more difficult.

              I have a request. Maybe I'm the only one this will affect, but the new behaviour I find really a shame is the popup we get when:

              ×ERROR

              You can only upvote a user 6 times a day

              By 8:00am I had already used up my daily 6 on @jsulm's answers to various threads, and there's a whole day still to go! I go through loads of posts and upvote whatever useful replies on a regular basis. Being limited now means I cannot tell which previous replies in threads I have read and marked useful.

              Is there any way this restriction could be lifted? I don't think we have ever had "spamming" of uncalled-for upvotes.

                @SimonSchroeder Hi, thanks for the report! There was yet another setting that had to be manually enabled after the upgrade. Should work now.

                  @JonB Yes, that's unnecessarily low. I'll discuss with Mr. Community Manager and we will raise the thresholds.

                    Later this morning I happened to upvote a @jsulm post again and it accepted it! So maybe you have already done this or it's happening by magic :) Or maybe it's just a different "day" in Pacific Time or something?! :(

                        Btw, what @SGaist is describing here, some comments above, seems to come close to what I've experienced.

                          I think these are old orphaned drafts -- we clicked "Reply" on a topic but didn't send it.

                          I had accumulated many of these over the years. Took me a while to discard them all 😅 The issue doesn't occur for me anymore

                            From the looks of it, there's still some loading time issue.

                            Even if on a very fast internet connection, the initial loading time is quite high. I am not expecting instant load however the initial loading time is pretty regularly past 10 seconds. I wonder though whether it's related to being logged in or not.

                            When loading in a private window, it's almost instantaneous however when I open the page in a new window with a session opened, it takes way longer.

                            It might also be browser related, Firefox seems to be the longer to load, Safari is faster but you can still feel the difference between logged out and logged in.
