Toby Report is in the ellipsis, but that's a matter of responding to the content.
Ah, good point. Though in general, I still tend to think of them as different sorts of things.
Thing is, I should be familiar enough with the new layout by now. I stopped trying to click the Like and Reply links in the lower left corner within a day of the change. But the ellipsis is a different matter.
Perhaps it's because so many other forum scripts put the controls up there. Is that a factor to consider?
... I suppose I should also mention that I still find myself about to edit other peoples' posts when I'm trying to reply to them. It doesn't happen all that often, and mostly when I'm tired or distracted, but under those circumstances that ellipsis button seems to act like a mouse-magnet. 😛
Added later:
After a bit of thinking, my original point still holds. The Report command is technically a response, but the intent behind the action is to manage the post. All the controls in the ellipsis have this in common: they're used with the intent of either altering the content of the post, or removing it from the discussion entirely.
The ultimate goal of the Like and Reply links, by contrast, is simply to express ones own opinion in response.
