How do you even tell if a threads updated?

There's no icon

There's no "last poster"

There's no anything as far as i can tell.

I've been clicking back to the same threads about twenty times now because there's no clarification as to whether or not it's been updated.

Who cares if a thread has 100 upvotes if noone is actually in it!?

EDIT: all i've noticed so far is the amount of comments a thread has, which means remembering a counter...lovely

Also why say when the thread was posted, and not when the last post was posted? Who cares when the thread was made vs when it was updated!?

Actually, the only thing that is needed is a "Subscribe to discussion" button... that would give you updatesin your profile like it does whe nsomeone replies...

It's a huge priority for us. Totally agree that it's a gap!

Specifically we want to

  • Have some indication that something has changed/updated since the last time you viewed a discussion (easier of the two)
  • Show you what has changed (harder)

I can agree with this. I'd rather a notice that says "updated about 2 hours ago" than be told that it was created about 2 hours ago. If they tweak the layout there would be plenty of room to show both, imo :)

One of the things they really want to do is a subscription button for, say, writing/drawing/etc threads and maybe content creators. So basically now you can keep track of those you really wanna follow.
