Player populations over time per IFDB

[alyshkalia (Tabitha (ey/em or they/them))]

Regarding updates to the front page to make it more new-visitor-friendly, I stand by what I said here:

@alyshkalia

Having each of these four sections be both “here’s the latest listings of this thing” and “here’s how to view this thing generally” is confusing IMO.

Right now it’s not clear that the games and reviews being shown are the most recent ones. I’d update the headings to “New Game Listings” and “Latest Reviews”, and then put the “New”, “Hot”, “Random” etc. links at the bottom of the Games column, after “See the full list”.

[…]

The other sections could maybe use an explanatory intro like [the polls section has.] Then perhaps titling them “Latest games”, “Latest reviews” etc. wouldn’t be necessary because the intro would say something like “IFDB is primarily a database of IF games. Here are the latest that have been added:”

There are other good suggestions in the thread I linked too.
