We use Discourse for our Arabic-speaking community, unfortunately the latest update totally broke the RTL layout.  
Unlike last time, [Main CSS and mobile style not working after update "2.9.0.beta10"](https://meta.discourse.org/t/main-css-and-mobile-style-not-working-after-update-2-9-0-beta10/240553) We couldn’t roll back to beta12.

Since we are basically stuck with beta13, you can check out the broken layout live on our forum:

We really hope that RTL gets better testing after this, as this is the second update that broke RTL recently.
