Hi Gail, yep, its straight to new posts for me too.... 😎
 
I click the "What's new" tab. Then read new and updated threads that interst me.
 
New post, but I don't always see everyone's post as I have a list of ignored.
 
New posts

Skip past anything that that im not interested in
Try to ignore conspiracy theory/deliberate troll threads unless i want a laugh
Go to the games section
 
I read my alerts first. Then do the Wordle puzzles and update that thread with my scores and then the Day-7 waking average thread to see how everyone on there is doing and then look at the What's New for anything of interest.
 
The seven day waking average thread before I forget the number that was on my meter.
 
I look at my alerts and any new posts first. Then I will have a general browse around the forum for anything that catches my eye.

Still learning a lot even from topics that aren't specifically related to T2. Despite all the different types of diabetes people live with and approaches they have to manage it, there are a lot of commonalities.
 
DMs, alerts, then unanswered threads, newbies, general message board, and then others
Try to ignore conspiracy theory/deliberate troll threads unless i want a laugh
Report these and act accordingly
