Writing a post on a Discourse-based forum for the first time in years and I just cannot understand how bad the UX is after all these years. TONS of popups nagging me to do stuff, and my post is given one of the tiniest windows I've ever seen to write in. 0% of the buttons have tooltips/titles to help understand what they do.

As I hover over "Create Topic", I have zero idea what it's going to actually do. PPHBB was awesome and I weep for its decline :'(
