- 50,000 pages lost their 'last updated' info and were marked with archival dates, changing their status to 'archived on'.
- The content flow is no longer chronological, mixing pages from different years without order.
- The stream is now somewhat curated, showing clusters of related topics or neighborhoods, unlike before when pages were unrelated.
- New issue: many screenshots show directory listings instead of index.html, which might be removed from the timeline.
