I have the above formulated wish, because the number of new posts is bewildering and takes too much time to look through. Add to that most people interested in those new posts are already watching the thread in which these appear. What interests me more are new threads, because these can contain interesting information. Now I have to go around and stumble on them by accident. So there's my wish.
Why not just add it to the right. These are little tweaks but can be very helpful. We'll try to get it added here soon.
