What does this new forum icon mean? (Plus sign)

This is a new icon at the top, right? Or have I just never noticed it! What does it mean "create new status"?

I think it´s not verry new, I´ve seen it before. Must be there for at least a few weeks, but can´t tell exactly

Well, if you put your cursor on it, it says "Create new content".  If you hit the drop down button, it gives the options:  Status and Topic

I know what it says, but I don't know what new status means.

Derdiedler, my top of page and icons look a little different than your screenshot. The plus is much bigger and doesn't have the title/words create.

I tested "Status". It showed up on my screen under Activity. I  don't understand what its purpose is.

Thank you for testing. I was afraid to since I didn't understand what it does.
