Is there a way to move Late Breaking News to the top right or at least under Trending?

It's a pain in the neck to have to scroll down to the bottom of the page to see it.

And you get only 10 LBN stories now instead of 25. And the entire column of videos is missing, highplainsdem Oct 2023 #1

Here's what I see on the "home page"

When I click on "Latest Breaking News" (red arrow) I get an entire page of LBN news stories.
You can order them by Most Recent Post or Most Recent Reply.

Is this what you're seeing too?

I guess I was just spoiled and will have to get used to the extra step unless I want to scroll down to the end.

I explained here after seeing a number of people complain about the new home page:

The DU home page was definitely one of those "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" cases, as far as many DUers are concerned. That isn't being spoiled.

The people I heard from who said they didn't mind the changes were all people who said they never really spent any time on the home page, just used it to reach another page.

The people who spent more time on the home page didn't seem to like the changes.
