Again, thanks for working on the site, and especially for keeping up with it even though the initial reaction was less than overwhelmingly positive. :)

It's not very clear how one gets to lesswrong.com/new/ from the new front page, or for that matter anywhere. I looked around a bit, but couldn't find a link anywhere. EDIT: Ah, there is a link on lesswrong.com/promoted/ , but you have to go there first to find it. That's not an optimal situation.

ETA: I second the comments about the new reply icon being better, and about appreciating the comment counts in the sidebar. (Though I was for a moment a bit confused as to what the "c" referred to, as I thought it was an implementation of the showing upvotes/downvotes separately thing.)

Yeh - that's fallen out as being harder than I'd imagined. Any ideas?

Make the MAIN dropdown offer:

MAIN >

Promoted
All

This, but without introducing another level in the hierarchy, so just "Promoted posts", "All posts" and "Comments".

I say do both.

Just link to it from the text of the front page.
