I agree, the old buttons were a lot more useful than the current ones. 'Agree', 'optimistic', 'hug', all clearer messages than the ones we have now.And a hug button too, I know they’re only buttons but they can convey a lot

I only have the option of like or reply.
Press and hold like and there are other options
And an agree button!And a hug button too, I know they’re only buttons but they can convey a lot
They are emojis, though. Not what we had previously. Also, when there are several in a post, visually uncomfortable to read.

There appears to be no diabetic type visible under names. It's hard enough when people don't fill in their profile or information, but this lack makes it harder. Why can't there be at least big red letters or something explaining why filling in profiles and diabetes information is helpful!

In fact, there is now no way, when clicking on a posters name, to see any information about their diabetes anyway. Having to play 20 questions before offering suitable help is ridiculous. Yes, I am cross.
It seems that if you click the little arrow under the username, an expanded panel of options, including diabetes type comes up, but (at least on my tablet), the type is truncated! So I agree, that should be made more prominent. Pics attached.
And clicking on the profile name you then need to go to ‘about’ to get the information.
I guess some of this will be about getting used to where the information now is so a crib sheet or two wouldn’t go amiss.

Yes...thanks @Goonergal
I took a look using mobile.
Using portrait mode.
Clicked avatar once
Then once opened clicked again to check under "ABOUT".
Ok..just checked in landscape mode
All that info is under arrow under avatar.
But as you say shortened and no way to see clearly what type of medications, etc
A little teething issues as you say, until we all get used to where 'stuff' is

There is no arrow under user names on my android, not in portrait or landscape view. Otherwise I would have tried clicking it

Yes it starts well but ends roo early. On my large screen laptop the panel cannot be expanded and the user details are truncated
.
I’m on my iPad on website view (don’t use the app) And I don’t have arrows under the names, if I click on the name it just gives me, counts for messages, reactions and points, then the ignore, follow, private message button
I’m on an iPad - desktop site, not app - and get the arrow. I’m using the UI.X layout.
Just tried going back to default layout and the arrow disappears so it seems the display is different dependent on which format you’re using.
I was on default, I’ve just gone onto the UI.X layout and have the arrows but can’t cope with the layout, too pale and not enough definition for me - I’m sure it will all sort out as admin work on the upgrade
Same for me. No little arrow on my desktop.

nor on my laptop . But even if I did, I still wont access information on any diabetic meds etc posters have shared in their profile, which makes safe advice and help harder and slower as I would have to ask questions and wait for responses.
