Yeeps.

I’m here, but:

1. The **scrolling issues** are the worst I’ve ever encountered on any site. Couldn’t we have done better than this? And

2. All the **white space** that’s technically in each post, but is **between posts** for all practical purposes in terms of reading Which also aggravates the scrolling problem.

So is there some sort of adjustment one can make to one’s view of the site to tighten things up a bit? I sure hope so. I’d hate to think this is what the Dope’s gonna look like for a long time to come.

I’m here, but I feel like I’m wandering around a new campus, trying to find a familiar landmark. It’ll make sense eventually, right?

That’s great for me, but I want my avatar to look nice for everyone else. ☹ If everyone else has the round avatars…
