What I'm missing in the new UI is the possibility for the user to preview the *entire* post, I'm always extensively using preview features everywhere. So this feels like a loss, although the user can preview the content of the individual input box. But that's not reason enough to hold up this change, I just wish the "send us your feedback" button [1] would actually work. Full Ack from me for this change, this will be very beneficial as we get higher quality reports and people won't be required to navigate through raw markdown, which is not user-friendly at all. cheers, lukas [1] https://github.blog/changelog/2021-06-23-issues-forms-beta-for-public-repositories/
