I'm slowly getting comfortable with the new format. I read the posts direct from the web using Internet Explorer.
Here's what works for me:

Set Thread Display Mode to 'Linear – Oldest First'
Then when the last post in a thread is read you are at the bottom of the page making it convenient to click 'Next Thread' at the very bottom.
This puts you at the top of the new page where you find and click 'View First Unread'.

Before I had to use the Back button and then try to remember which was the next unread thread (they weren't automatically marked 'read' unless you hit the 'refresh' button).

I apologize if this is in the instructions somewhere, (or is intuitively obvious to everyone but me).

I now prefer the new format over the old.
