I dislike the discussion/main section divide. I have to check two places for recent comments/posts. Plus, every time I want to make a post I have to decide which section to post it in, and that seems to be a not insignificant mental cost. Actually I can't really tell which posts belong where, so I've ended up posting all of them in discussion "to be safe".

Does checking http://lesswrong.com/r/all/new solve the problem of checking two places?

Doesn't the choice of top-level post vs open thread comment have the same problems?

(Also, people like me can break the implicit rules about what to post where for not-obviously-prosocial reasons, like me posting the thing about meta-ethics to Main for experimental reasons despite it being Discussion material.)
