4. Yeah, I'd found that. But it's not on my Home page 'dashboard'...

It requires extra clicks to go to a different page. Fooey.

I keep the Home Page open on my browser bar alla time, it's like my "main" DU interface. I like to have the stuff I impulse-click on THERE, the Home Page. Stuff I impulse-click includes LBN, Videos, and occasionally Trending or Greatest posts. Also, of course, replies to my own posts. Everything else is just noise on the page, for me, so I turn it off or try to train myself not to see it. (BTW, when I impulse-click it's ALWAYS "open in a new browser tab" so that the Home Page tab stays open, as my "anchor". I just close whatever I impulse-clicked and I'm back there.)

I probably would also add latest or most-recommended posts in the Editorials and Articles forum on the Home Page if I had that as an option, because it functions almost as a "Long Reads" category, which I like to access when I'm at work eating lunch at my desk and looking for interesting reading matter rather than discussions. I know "Long Reads" has never been a thing here, but I have learned to love it on other sites and E&A is the closest thing we got.

wistfully,
Bright
