If you'd like to revert to the old layout:

Android
Switch to desktop site
If your using chrome hit the three dots menu > desktop site

Tip:
If you want a quick change to see some more info, rotate your phone and you have the regular desktop site. Rotate it back to portrait and your on the new layout.

Only works if you have unread posts, not for going back after it's been read already.
I always shows the last page number. Having that button back would be nice though.

And a bigger New button
Perhaps also have them all aligned to the right (I believe there's a mod for that)

In the end, while there might be many changes wanted or needed, it's definitely far better than before. IMO.

Same here. Request desktop does not do anything on safari. I don’t see an option on chrome. This format is a real downgrade. Only basic info is available on each screen. I can’t see the wide view that lets me quickly see the topic and time of last reply on the main forum page. It’s like going back to  prodigy and aol after chrome....

This method works in Firefox mobile as well.

If you want a quick change to see some more info, rotate your phone and you have the regular desktop site. Rotate it back to portrait and your on the new layout.
120 characters? Hmm, I wonder what I could write with 64 characters. Boy, it's gonna be hard to use up 15 characters. W-

Rotating does not bring up any additional detail for me.

My old go to browser on the iPhone to access websites that didn't work well on mobile was Penguin. That is no longer around. Opera works well for certain sites.

Lost 75% of the functionality. Can you point out the benefits?

Can you be more specific? (Except for not being able to see the topic and time of last reply on the main forum page, which can be seen with an extra click.)

Benefits include:
  • Bigger text
  • No more constant zooming in and out
  • Icons and buttons are bigger and better mobile optimized

In general a much more mobile friendly experience. Things you don't like can hopefully get fixed.
