Blimey - I must have a direct link or something.  Just looking at my dna matches and see that it now tells you how many people in linked trees - yippee!! Makes matches much easier to discard, at least for me.

I've always had that. Are people using a phone or tablet rather than a laptop/desktop? Just wonder if it's why we have a different impression of the layout.

No using laptop/desktop.  Up till now have always had to click on linked tree to then see how many people in it - and I don't bother to investigate further if less than 100 people because at the distant relationships I am unlikely to find a name I recognise.

Now however it tells me how many people in both public and private linked trees on the initial screen so I don't need that extra click to see that info - I found that very tedious.
