I’m glad to have image and RSS support, but the way it’s done is pretty frustrating. You can’t subscribe to the whole forum, only to individual tags. This is extra work to set up, and you’ll miss posts if a new tag is introduced. It also means that if a post has multiple tags it will appear duplicated in your feed reader. At first it looks like there’s no page that lists all the tags. You can only view them 15 at a time<\/a>, which is lots of pages for 561 tags. Eventually I found a link in the forum help<\/a> to a page listing all the tags<\/a>. Nearly half<\/a> of the main page’s width is devoted to showing a list of only 5 trending tags. There’s still no mailing list mode. I’m not sure whether external links are still banned.<\/p>\n\n

There are no RSS feed on a member’s profile, so you can’t follow<\/a> known high-signal posters like Quinn<\/a>. He does, however, have a list of favorite improvements<\/a>, mainly to the Markdown support.<\/p>\n\n
