I will say it makes retrieving forum thread links easier (I did have to open a browser to do that) but imo it isn't worth the other downsides so far. Le sigh.
Well, it has arrived. Forums opens in browser. Ugh. 😮💨 Clicking on users names does do some interesting new things now. But I preferred when it linked directly to a profile.
Their response when I sent in a ticket to raise my concerns, going so far to request a human review of it before they closed the ticket: "Thank you for reporting this! We are aware of the issue and are currently tracking its impact so we can investigate further and address it with our team. Sometimes solutions to these issues take longer than you'd expect, so it may be a little while before we can resolve this one. Thank you for letting us know as it helps us to prioritize issues better in future. Please let us know if you need help with anything else. Have a good day!"
It’s been like that for probably a year or more on iPhone, Android is always last to the party 😮💨😂 PIMD was available first only to IPhone
Mine updated today also, so far it's just annoying af, why take something that works and is easy to make it take more steps and be more complicated?
This happened to me too and the annoying thing is that when I'm in the potd thread to check the quicklink for the people testing parties, it doesn't redirect to pimd, it only comes up their Forum profile which is super annoying as you will have to manually go and type their username in to check if the party dropped. I really hope they will fix this.
