New dropdown top bar sucks.

This is different than the other post in this form as I don't want to go back to the entire old redesign.
Hovering over community doesn't automatically bring up the list of forms.
Several forms are missing and it's annoying to have to add extra clicks to get there.
There is so much wasted space.
Something is wrong with the avatars and scaling. It's shrinks the width more than the height.
I'm guessing it's designed to me more mobile friendly (but IDK because I use basic html), but the desktop version still needs help.
Is there a way to just go back to the old header?

in the dropdown if you're gonna make us use it. That's what i'd use more often to get back to the forum if I've read several pages of a thread and want to go look at more hot deals. I've never used those trending links.
I can't take this constant peek-a-boo behavior. The old header bar was slimmer and so having it permanently take up space at the top of the window was never an issue for me.
Reminds me of the old Eagle's classic, "Hotel California"....
let me pin it or something. its super annoying.
Why is the HOT DEALS forum taken away??? I'm sure you hid it under something that made sense to a 'developer' and not a user.
I can't reach anything. Not my deals or my PM's
Total turn off. Why must everything be changed. If this stays I'm heading off to a new deals site that's for sure.
Wait your keeping this for the next 3 weeks.
Well good luck with that.
It's not so much "Oh, a few extra clicks, big deal". But rather, you had a pretty functional design before and now it's regressive and not intuitive. I'm not sure what the point of making it more cumbersome to find the forums, but changes like this make long term visitors such as myself turned off by unnecessary changes such as this.
yep! Makes perfect sense! lol
It's why I gather the search bar is so big; so visitors have easiest access to click on deals. They must have data indicating that most lurkers click on the deal and scroll only halfway leading to other UI changes like the Questions & Answers header (which is also unnecessarily huge).
Im not sure about the changes made, but hiding community is still regressive to me. As far as the mobile interface is concerned.

Oh, additionally commented about disappeared inbox messages… If you would've left those comments I could've copied and paste it onto my own thread, would've save me extra work!
