I am currently using the "following" page like I used the "control panel" on the old forum.
Maybe I should be using a very clever search (that I saved as a bookmark) instead?
What I'd like to have is a breakdown of new activity in threads (sorry, I mean conversations), in chronological order, being able to click somewhere to go to the latest post (the way microcosm handles it, sending one to the point one has left off, or something does not work for me at all - I'm always being thrown "omewhere towards the end" of the thread, often between two posts actually).
What I dislike most of using the "following" page instead of the old CP is: it's cluttered and unclear to me.
When somebody replies to a comment of mine, this gets an entry - in addition to the conversation getting an entry because there's new activity in the first place.
If that somebody puts pictures in his post, they are displayed on my following page, often taking up the whole screen.
If that preson @mentions me in that post, this gets yet another entry on the following page, so I have two times all of his pictures cluttering up the "following" page, plus the regular "new activity" entry.
I'm having a hard time understanding that this is the way it's intended to be.
