I smoke weird cigars and am not a Designer,
But the person who designed this Forum sure has an interesting take on UX.
After only 2 hours here on network.office.com my mousewheel got so hot I had to leave it for an hour.
So I smoked yet another of those weird cigars....
Then spend some hours in Stylish (or use StyleBot or any other Browser plugin that can paste CSS in any page)
My CSS is Public Domain:
https://userstyles.org/styles/130655/microsoft-network-office-com-css-enhancements
It reduces font-sizes, alternates background colors, removes UX elements I really don't care about,
and it highlights, with my own applied gold/silver badges, the persons that seem interesting.
All in CSS only
So my screen now looks like:
disclaimer: no animals were killed or jQuery was used in the production of this code
aNow I am ready for those thousands of questions here in this Forum

Nice, basically make it look and feel like a Yammer thread again...
Thank You!! This is a big improvement!
Is there any way you can reduce the height of the various blue and white bars at the top of the page?
- MichaelHolsteHey Rob, the blue and white bars are standard Microsoft branding, that wasn't a custom design and I doubt we are able to change it.
I'd say this was designed solely with smartphones and small tablets in mind. There the UI (even the one for not logged in users) makes sense.
Thank you danholme,
I'm looking forward to exploring what this new community has to offer, and would be thrilled to see much engagement between MS and the community on various topics here. I really hope it doesn't end up as a billboard for people's blog posts ;-)
Cheers,
Tobias.
Perhaps it's by chance that you posted the welcome to the SharePoint group on a Saturday, as a salute to all the SharePoint Saturdays out there. That is, it appears to me as a Saturday post ;)
Thanks danholme - its the best of Yammer and Technet Forums and growing capability! My favourite feature is "Accept as Solution" in conversations.
Keep up the good work!

- Hi
Using IPAD browser I do not even sen how to like a post The my feed on this network is quite annoying. As it only shows 5 items....
1. I can't see more that 5 unanswered question even thoguh there are more
2. People can't see my questions once there have been more than 5 people reporting issues after me.
I liked Yammer with the unlimited number of conversations listed.
Thank you!
I'm intrigued to see how this will work out. I'm still very confused as to why all of the sudden we move away from Yammer and what will happen to the private networks that we've built in Yammer for our company and our customers.
Happy posting people! :)
