I had the same problem and had to create a more secure password in order to log in to the new site. Founder noted that I should not have needed to do that during that stage of beta testing, but for some reason I did.
The new password also worked on the old site as well.
Resetting the password worked, do you want other comments here? First thing I noticed was I don't think My Feed works as intended. It just Says "Comment" "Comment" "Review" etc, no way to click on them or see any details. Firefox on Windows.
If you go to reset your password on the new site, it asks that your password be as follows:
"Please use at least one UPPERCASE, one lowercase, one number, and one symbol, and use at least 8 characters."
I imagine that, eventually, everyone will need to fulfill that requirement.
Don't get me wrong, you clearly put a lot of effort into it, and it looks good and just needs some getting used to.
Having said that, feed is not working correctly. All I get are headings and no content like

As a UI guy, I can help nitpick all the little bugs n stuff.
@founder Got a place I can drop my findings? I also know how annoying backseat devs can be, so feel free to ignore me too. I don't mind.
Only took a a quick peek and didn't navigate the new site.
For me the new colors pop too much - I prefer something more understated especially for when I may be surfing TUSCL in public.
As with previous changes in the past I assume I'll get used to the new look.
A lot of stuff seems not to be ready yet on the new site, so I am mostly still using the old site.
I did though have to reset my password, and upgrade it to the new specs.

A little bit of a lag on my computer but refreshing to see a site where the owner continues to make iterative improvements. Most sites seem to be abandoned after creation.
An oddity that you may not have noticed... I typed some comments into an unpublished review and submitted it. When the screen refreshed, those comments were automatically in the box for the next unpublished review. I'm not sure if this is a browser thing or server side. Again, Firefox on Windows.
Founder, would it be possible to keep the old pages open, "[view link]"?
I think they have advantages when not using a mobile device.
Thanks,
SJG
