It's definitely a new layout. I used my home computer over lunch and was experiencing the same issues.

I see it now. It is new. It's all loading. Last time it was the same format but it wasn't loading.

I had that problem at home. I was actually late to work because I was too stubborn and kept trying to make it work.

I kept trying to refresh because I thought it was an error. I was getting fed up. But now I see the change and on my desktop, I actually like it more. It works best for short threads.

I can definitely understand what they're going for. For people like me, who browse while working, it's a nightmare. I usually have my browser window cut to 1/4 of a monitor (because I multitask and have a billion windows open across my two monitors), just helps me keep it organized. But with the new layout, it takes ages to actually scroll down and it's hard to keep track of what I'm scrolling through. I just hope they decide to give us options on the display, like a compact view or something.

I'm on the fence, actually - on 1 hand, it looks cluttered; on the other hand, though, it incentivizes you to "read more".
