Two weeks ago we unleashed our shiny new site, DN2, into the wild to give you a sneak peek and see if it exploded under real-world pressure. And guess what? It totally felt that “real-world pressure” part!
As expected, not everything was as smooth as a freshly-peeled avocado. But that’s exactly why we’re doing this public test run! Your feedback was awesome – seriously, you helped us pinpoint what needs fixing, tweaking, and optimizing before we kick the old site (DN1) to the curb.
So, What’s Next for DN2?
Here’s the lowdown:
Server Shenanigans: Some functions threw a party on our servers, causing slowdowns. You may have felt like you were browsing through molasses, so we’re putting those functions on a strict diet. Especially our landing page will have to get some deep cuts.
Mobile Interface Got No Love: Ouch. Turns out, our new “simple” mobile look wasn’t everyone’s cup of tea. We heard you loud and clear, and we’re heading back to the drawing board on that.
Cam Room Catastrophes: Yep, under pressure, the cam room was a cam-tastrophe! We’re going to make sure the cams are rock-solid, even better than they are on DN1, before the grand launch.
Missing Data Gremlins: A few users experienced some data disappearing acts during migration. We’re on it! All your precious data needs to be right where it should be on DN2 launch day.
Minor Nips and Tucks: We’re doing a bunch of tiny tweaks here and there to make sure you’re thrilled with the final result. (We know, we can’t make everyone happy – we’re not pizza.)
A Quick Reminder:
- DN2 is still in beta! It’s just for testing right now and hasn’t replaced DN1 (yet!)
- Password resets are DN2-exclusive. Changing your password on the new site doesn’t magically change it on DN1.
- The forums are chilling. They’re not connected to DN2 and are still living their best life on DN1 until the new site launches.
And as always, we still love hearing from you! If you stumble upon a bug or issue, report it here – or just share your overall feedback here.
Thanks for sticking with us through the digital growing pains and being part of this wild, wonderful next chapter! 💙
