There is actually a way to view Newest posts

[opnspaces]

I found this nugget in a TeamGoodSam response while reading through different post. If I can remember where it is I'll see if I can link it somehow. But if you click on this link it will open the newest messages.

Edit: Here it is. Newest (Third Message down)
Supposedly they are working to set this up as a link, but in the interim offered it as a work around for anybody interested. I just created a second bookmark for it in my browser so I can find it again.

Hey @opnspaces, 

You are absolutely right! We heard your suggestions and found a way to make it happen! 

If you head to the homepage, on the lower right side of the page you will find a new widget that says "Unread Posts". Here you will find the latest posts you have not read but below those we also added a "View All" button where you can see all of these posts! 

Thank you for your patience and are excited to see you all using the community!

This widget is great. I'm using it all the time now.

I've also modified my preferences to increase the max number of items shown on any given page. I see a lot more content that way.
