I really love that y'all are asking the community for their opinions. We definitely won't all agree on the design of the homepage, but it's amazing that y'all include us. ❤️ Anyways, here is my input:

I like...

  • the 3 column set-up.
  • seeing the company sponsors in a column. I feel like most sites list them in the footer with small text.

I've noticed inconsistencies with...

  • the right column. The "newest listings" section has borders around every listing whereas when I look at the different sections for the tags that I follow there is only an outside border.

I hope this helps even just a tiny bit!!

That's very helpful, thanks!

And yes, with this post we wanna establish some sort of a communication channel with the community, not only for this project but for future ones as well. And you're 100% right we will not always agree on everything - sometimes we will have to make some calls that some people won't like. I think it's important to understand that we won't consider the community to be our "client" that we will be working for BUT more a team member that can give us some good feedback and ideas.

As designers we will have to filter signal from noise which is not very easy thing to do. On one hand we would love to please everyone but on the other hand it's simply not possible because "community" is not a one person.
