> It was in public-preview for a while now, it's not new.

> The improvements are not that great actually and it's clear Github management does not really listens or cares about the community needs.

> BTW images diff in "files changed" such tons, and also many times the images don't even load, not to mention their too small to notice any diff.

> Excellent Feature! It separates the issues and pull requests from the main feed in the Dashboard and that is greatly appreciated. I always avoided the Dashboard because it was too cluttered with the feed in the middle and everything else around it, that caused slow loading times. The separation of concerns helps improve page loading speeds greatly.
