There’s been a new release of the forum server. Because we’ve all had to do password resets I’m guessing it’s a fresh database behind the scenes with a different hashing algorithm - so possibly better security and other general plumbing improvements. But little else seems to have changed. The theme is a bit different, but not much else. Presumably there was a cost to this but whatever that cost was it doesn’t seem to have paid for much.
My biggest gripe: the default font is too small and there doesn’t seem to be a way to change it. And the editing font that I see now whilst typing in this post is minuscule.
