It's worse than the previous style update in that there's even more white space to scroll through within threads.
Just now, this quick reply is displaying in very small font size as I type. Compared to posts completed by others on FT, it's difficult to proofread my own posts, although there is lots of white space between paragraphs.
I also hate the inability to see easily what posts have been read, what threads have unread posts, etc.
Just like the last "update", this one has only estimates of the number of posts in a thread on the forum listing pages. I use the exact number sometimes to decide whether to go to the last page rather than clicking to go to the first unread post, which often seems to take more time. For example, if know roughly where the last post read fell on the page (toward the top/middle/bottom), but the thread now has for instance 1002 replies or 1019 replies (rather than only knowing that it's over 1K), this can enable me to quickly decide to go to the last page (or even first page) versus bothering to click to go to the first unread post (and then on the previous version, scrolling up/down since the first post displayed tended to start in the middle).
