Whenever I’m on the Infinite Flight Community I get a orange line inbetween the new topics. Multiple people had the issue not just me and I thought I would report it. Here is the link I made to the topic on the Infinite a Flight Community:
Because that already exists… (granted, this is being used for a different purpose)
The red line is to mimic the red line you will see in Slack that denotes new messages are below it (in Slack), but in Discourse, it denotes, new messages are above it.
Even in Slack, that blue bar rarely appears for me unless I’m gone for hours/days, as there is rarely enough messages for it to stay shown. The red line though is always there, letting me pick up where I left off.
The problem with the line is it is redundant. I can see what topics are new from looking at the top for “New” or under my icon to see what others have liked, @someone, etc.
I visit our SketchUp forum ump-teen times a day and use the New and Unread buttons exclusively.
When I’ve read the posts I’m interested in, I dismiss the rest.
The red ‘last time visited’ line is a mystery. I haven’t noticed it move up or down, it just sits there.
What that means, I haven’t a clue.
Why add unintelligible clutter when the New and Unread notifications clearly tell the tale?
