Is Tapatalk not going to be supported with the new forum?

Thank you for abandoning Tapatalk support! I run some forums and as an admin I hate the company and want them to go out of business. As a user I like the app though. When I did some upgrades I also dumped Tapatalk because aside from notifications it's just full of negatives from an admin viewpoint.

Having used the "Watched Forums", "New Posts", and "Watched Threads" features of this forum, I think Tapatalk may be uneccessary.
The old forum had no mobile format and Tapatalk made it easier to read. The new forum I do not have to pinch/zoom.
Edit: The only thing I am wondering about is memory usage. I used to have all my forums consolidated in Tapatalk, and this made it easy to switch between forums without stuff constantly having to re-load in Safari. Now if I have some forums being read in Tapatalk and TMC in Safari, there is a lot more re-loading of tabs. My iPhone 5 only has 1 GB of RAM. Maybe not such a problem with 6S users who have 2GB of RAM.

Same here!
I am okay with the new UI - it's okay, but not far better then the old one.
BUT!
Tapatalk is one of the most used apps on my phone - there are a few forums I am browsing with this.
And the most important one is not working anymore :-(
Get it fixed PLEASE!

Guys, admins have already spoken on it. They are looking into a solution. Give them time. Repeatedly harping isn't going to bring it about any sooner.

One key aspect of tapatalk for me is that I had it set up for 'dark' mode where the majority of the screen is black, text is white. Much better for reading when Inwake up in the middle of the night. This all-white theme is a real bad idea if you want to get back to sleep!
I work with propofol and definitely do not recommend using that medication as a sleep aid.

If this thread is a petition, I am chiming in requesting renewed Tapatalk support. Maybe it is a pain for the admins (and for that I am sympathetic and appreciative of their hard work), but my frequency here on the site has dropped by 90% because of it. I acknowledge the mobile web interface is a whiz-bang improvement over what it was before, but it is nothing compared to the tapatalk interface's speed. Is it because Tapatalk doesn't support adds? Maybe it should transfer add revenue to the host site somehow, if that is an issue?

Tapatalk is definitely faster on my iPhone than Safari, and it seems to use less battery power as well.
I suspect that this has to do with the amount of stuff that the browser has to retrieve and render versus what Tapatalk must process. Tapatalk is very optimized as far as the end-user experience is concerned.
