I’m using a Win 10 laptop with a touch pad, Firefox most recent version. I note there is a lot of discussion on the variability of the mouseover feature with different themes/devices/browsers on the [mouseover](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/no-mouseover/912436) thread – which I am sure you are watching carefully!

But that brings me to another new feature that I really like here: Not losing a reply while I go hunt for another thread. Here, I can do that without opening a new tab. 💃
