Interesting point. Thanks for keeping us up to date. You might like to know, though, that on German Wikipedia most discussions about Flow seem to focus on how to turn it off or how to keep it out of the project altogether. Switching to Flow would require a community consensus anyway. So could you please consider a global switch for communities that would rather like to disable these new features completely. Regards, Jürgen. PS. We have never enabled the LiquidThreads extension neither. And the new Beta link up right did not stay there for long. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
