My only complaint is that it does not utilize the horizontal

nicely matches the front page redesign.
The navigation sidebar has been made narrower. How does it
look now?
We can make it a bit narrower still by removing the redundant
"About this forum" link. I don't think that 100%-width is
great, as above certain line length readability suffers.
Readability is subjective and depends on the reader. Line length
should not be the concern of the designer, but of the user who
should have control over line length by adjusting the width of
the browser.
There's a good 30% of the screen or more that's not being
used, and this is only on a 1920x1080 monitor.
Well, I would argue that this is not a problem that needs
fixing. There is just no content to fill in that space. Making
the posts themselves fill all available horizontal space does
not help readability either.
I don't agree, I like the width of the old forum better.
I have a large monitor and don't read full screen. So my browser
is sized comfortably. Nevertheless, the new design wastes space
and I'm feeling cramped...
