- Post navigator is still at the bottom but with Qt development cool styles :D
I don't care so much about the styling, but I find the switch from up & down arrows to left & right arrows there really strange. Left / right makes it seem like you'd use them to switch between different threads, not go to the start / end (AKA top / bottom) of the current thread.
(As a reminder, the navigator currently looks like this on mobile, with the same sensible up/down arrows as on the desktop...)

@Nhan-Nguyen Just one more thing to check: performance. I still have an issue that when I want to check the forum, if anonymous, it's super fast but as soon as I am logged in, it goes down to a crawl.
-
@SGaist Do you feel any performance improvement after the upgrade? Any feedback is welcome!
-
@Nhan-Nguyen Like the old saying goes: day and night (at least from some minimal preliminary tests) :-)

One other thing that is surprising. There used to be a preview when writing however it's now only shown when editing a post.Furthermore, once the editor is hidden, it seems you have again go through the three dotted menu to make it appear again. The previous version would show an icon to show the editor back.
Ok, you have to hit either reply to the last message or the global reply button to have the preview.
However, the hiding issue is still there.

tongue in cheek comment
I wonder if moving posts will be hidden ... it has been uncalled for and difficult to to keep track, I guess I find out.Other that that - if it WAS NOT BROKEN , why FIX it or does Qt have money to burn ??? -

Qt Inc - get your money back!Was it done by AI or human?
Look-up Webster's definition of "update ". -
@Nhan-Nguyen That's great, thanks!
And I see that links in post body text are underlined now, which is awesome and will warm the hearts of the W3C's Web Content Accessibility group.
I did notice that, while links are underlined in the posts, they're only underlined on hover in the edit-mode preview of the desktop interface. Which seems like a weird difference. (It's not a big deal at all, though.)
