Website layout update/change

Why did you change the layout of the websites news feed?  It is much more difficult to scan with eyes to find specific stocks that you are interested in, as well as now appears to limit the quantity of articles it holds in its memory (list)...  Is there an option to use the previous layout?  Frankly, this makes me want to drop my membership & go to another source for news!

Quote from Gatsu

I can't find "my calendar" anymore with the upcoming earning release and ex-dividend for my stocks.

And I entered all the stocks I owned and the number of shares. It just disappears now my portfolio is just all the stocks I followed like on the mobile version. I don't care about 2/3 of those stocks. I wish I could still use the old version. The new version of this website is useless to me.

Hi Gatsu, go to your portfolio and click on the "earnings" tab to see upcoming earnings dates for your stocks and the "Dividend" tab to view the ex divs, payout dates etc.  Click the column headlines to sort.

Thank you for this website you posted.  It may be a decent replacement for me.  I'm going to check it out over the next few days.  Seeking Alpha - get your act together.

Hi all, thanks so much for the feedback, we have already taken some actions here and submitted change requests to bring back some of the features like showing the number of new items which arrived after you scrolled down. Persisting the "new items" message. Looking into the highlighting logic as well for the new items.

I really liked the old format for the news feed with a headline and body without pictures mostly.  I keep it up all day and check the news as it scrolls.  This new format is useless to me,

Better, but now tighten up the spacing.  My finger is dying from all the scrolling.

You people are turning SA into a Yahoo/AOL-like website. If I remember correctly, that didn't turn out too well...

Just go back to the old version, it's easy to read and pretty good, don't do some useless function.

"Show Full Stories", the layout much worse than the old one, your team can try that! it's quite hard to read. it's definitely not a thoughtful change. 


And don't focus on your useless layout design, these several days so many mistakes in the news, including the basic historical data of the market index

I don't think the seeking alpha team use this website or apps.

If they use it, they definitely know it's an awful change. 

Or the new team doesn't have experience in the financial industry, they don't have a basic understanding of financial websites and apps, they cannot understand what readers pay high attention to
