The thing I don't get is why LessWrong defines itself as a "community blog" but then—unlike every other blog I have ever read—presents visitors with a (basically) static page when they go to lesswrong.com. If this is a consular ship, then where is the ambassador? To get to the actual blog you're supposed to click Main, which is just weird. If lesswrong.com/promoted is the 'main' thing then why isn't it the thing I first see when I visit lesswrong.com?
On the main page, the four most recent promoted articles are visible (as titles) on the left side, underneath the welcome.
On my 1920x1080 monitor, the title of that section is partially visible on the bottom of the page. (This seems like a problem.)

because main posts are often either meetup announcements or really indepth decision theory stuff that is both boring and opaque to newcomers. We don't get as many instantly exciting articles like a lot of the sequence posts as we used to
