I really wish the Subject column was wider.

Being able to read most of the subject on one line was one of the things I liked best about DU3. The DU4 format makes the subject wrap, sometimes to 3 or 4 lines. Harder to skim.

1. Can you tell me what device and browser you're using?

And also what page you're looking at?

It's possible I can make some adjustments to improve this for you, but I can't diagnose the problem without knowing what kind of screen you are using, and on what page.

2. Windows on a pretty old Dell laptop. Chrome.

I'll try Firefox and Edge and get back to you.

3. Screen shots of General Discussion in DU3 and DU4

Sorry. I can't seem to remember how to embed a graphic in a post.

4. Thanks

Take a look now -- I've just stretched it a little wider. Unfortunately that's about as far as I can go... you're getting the tablet view because you have a smaller screen size, but tablets are a bit smaller than your screen, so if I adjust the columns any further the Author column will get very squashed for tablet users.

5. It's OK.

It's OK if I maximize my window. Understanding the "why" of things is half the battle.

6. They're still very narrow for mobile devices

If the listing were an Excel table, the subject has about the same width as the date/time stamp column.
