Same here. Some mornings, there are hundreds more posts up than when I went to bed the night before. Since workload and work schedule don't allow for reading every single post, going backwards from the end is how I usually do it. And, important posts from earlier in the thread are referenced at the bottom, so at least it's possible to get the gist of the discussion(s).
✔Not enough hrs. in the day to do this whole thread and household chores and garden. 😉
