For a short while, the watched thread list was changed to function like the older version of the site. This is no longer the case. What happened?
It malfunctions for people who watch forums themselves, not just individual threads. You can still click the dropdown of 'Watched' and go to 'Unread watched threads' to access it.

Yes, I saw that and it functions like I want it to.

Works fine for me and I watch the giftstravaganza forum granted that's not a high traffic subforum.

The 'post reply' button hovers over the 'insert media' buttons on mobile, but it's possible to use enter to insert things. It should be the other way around though.

Post reply button should be in front of everything, even the floating navigation arrows.

is "jump to new" not working for others? it generally works, but there's been a couple threads where I clicked "Jump to New" and it brings me to several pages before my actual last unread.

Well I'm not talking about the nav buttons, the 'post reply' button renders 'insert media' completely useless on mobile because you can't click it. It should be topmost.

The watched threads filter is now installed, thanks to Taluntain.

What insert media button is it?

It happens with none of them at the moment. Did you already change something? That issue appeared at least a week ago in different threads, so not just a onetime incident. It was always the hovering 'insert image' box with the textfield, not the media buttons themselves that were obscured.

Thanks for the watched threads filter. Apparently trying to keep track of threads without it wasn't working well because now I have three pages of unread threads I'd been missing since the forum update

I don't know what the hell have you done but now all of my watched threads appear as unread, even those that haven't been updated in a while.

Should there be a link to unread threads on the level of the Home/Forums/What's new/Members/Chat bar that drops down when scrolling down on the page?

There is, still all of my old watched threads are marked as unread.

I'm showing threads as unread from last year even though I've posted in them more recently than that. The old posts are actually marked as new too. Something fucky going on. No big deal though. I'll just mark all forums read when I get home and I assume that will fix it

Yeah same happened to me. Was probably the update, I just hit mark forums read and it is working just fine moving forward now.

you might want to check for threads that you know are active, it seems whatever happened also removed some of the threads from the watch list, mostly the few in politics subforum that I watch

The header image (ironically?) still doesn't scale on mobile:

Also, the menu should be two rows at most, it takes up too much of the screen. If you make the buttons a bit smaller, four can fit in one line.

It doesn't work that way, the width of your specific mobile's screen is not a universal unit of measurement.

Alternatively, can the menu links be moved to the drop-down menu instead? Those 2-3 rows take up way too much space with buttons that are not usually used.
