New WRUW update
I used to love browsing the WRUW page, it was my favorite part of the site, but yesterday's update has kind of ruined it for me, I do like it inverted (newest at the top) but the amount of double posts, continuously repeating pages, going forwards and backwards to leave a like and it seems (to me) impossible to post a picture.
Not to mention running out of RAM halfway down the page locking up the browser/laptop, that never happened before.
Someone decided to fix something that wasn't broke.
Maybe it's for the benefit of the smartphone generation who like squinting at tiny screens, not for me I'm afraid, I'll come back when they've unfixed it. 😀

I agree
In agreement as well. I believe the WRUW was an issue world wide as you could begin posting at 4am here in the US, which was problematic for someone in a different time zone on the other side of the world.
Not having the ability to sort from newest to oldest post and vica-versa should have never been taken away. I'm on wifi in multiple locations and the WRUW continues to buffer/lock, etc. The double-post are annoying.
I might be in the minority, but since I have to do 99% on my phone I'm liking it, but as I always the case YMMV I guess.
I like that it's inverted, it stops the first posts from taking all the likes (I know this happens as I've posted the same watch at 9am and 3pm and the count is vastly different).
On mobile the scrolling was a problem, once you posted a message you'd lose your place. Now it works, it's an improvement for mobiles for sure. I rarely view this on laptop so I can't speak to that.
So much better on the phone, you can also get an overview with mines linea of 3-4 watched, and then click on the ones you want to see bigger. Much, much better. Love the update
I totally agree, I thought it was something I was doing wrong.
