Only when it has been fully deserved.

It’s a brand new installation of Chrome. Literally a new computer. I got the new computer and one of the first things I did was come to FT.

The font size is too large in posts/usernames, would prefer an option to adjust text size (or just allow some the option of using the new skin or the old skin). Not sure why it has to be "one style only" and not give people the option of using old or new.

I use the desktop site even on mobile because infinite scroll is the most annoying thing on the planet. Fonts are now huge.

Indeed, although from my limited use it appears that you need to open a thread in the new version before it will show as read - previous activity wasn't carried over. If the case, this will soon resolve itself as older threads roll off the first page.

Can you perhaps fix the old problems first? Cursor off the screen on my iPad. Now I can’t even see what I’m typing.
New fonts not so readable.

Actually, this applies to every link on every page.

I am seeing the same thing. I'll demo it in this post and then add a screenshot to illustrate the problem. The first four words in this sentence are hyperlinked. The last word in this sentence is hyperlinked. All of the words in this sentence are hyperlinked. None of the words in this sentence are hyperlinked.

I can respond in IE on the same computer. It's a brand new computer. First thing I did once I got it was come here to FT.

There is a change - it only appears on threads that has new posts. The change isn't bad per se, it just takes a little getting used to (Before, when the link appeared on all threads I used it to go to last read post on all threads, ie I never had to use the actual "go to last post" link on the far right. Now one has to learn to alternate between the two.)

I also see that bolding is back like it used to be, which is great

Fonts on my FT page are too small.

From that demo, one can tell you need to mouse over the actual link before you see underlining ! Kind of defeats the purpose, why would anyone mouse-over all text to find what is hyperlinked!

The area (space) between the "sticky welcome" and the "normal" threads. It is confusing. It needs to be fixed.

Thanks.
