Looks great, but too much space in the discussions.

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by EarlG (a host of the DU4 Bug Reports forum).

I really like the new format, but please consider reducing the blank lines.

I have a very large display and I still find that too many spaces reduce the content I can read.

I did intentionally create this design with a little more white space. For people with very large monitors it might be a bit of a "whoa" moment when switching from DU3 to DU4. It's hard for me to judge because I've been testing this version out now for a long time, so I'm used to it. (I use a large monitor by the way.)

One of the cool things about the change to DU4 is that it does give us flexibility to allow individual customization, so it's possible I could create a "reduced white space" option that you can select in Account Settings. It will take a little time to get to that though...

Edited to add: I'm going to lock this because it's more of a question about the design than a bug report. If you feel I haven't answered the question adequately please feel free to continue in the DU4 Questions & Answers forum.
