Seeking Feedback On My New Site

Some raw feedback. Please note that by it’s nature, I’m focussing on the things that I think need improvement, that means it might come across as negative, which isn’t the intention :hugs:


I find the homepage extremely negative in tone. I know it’s a privacy forum, so a lot will be about breaches etc. But seeing various headlines like this

Outlook Is The Latest Data Aggregation Service From Microsoft

Ever use Microsoft’s Outlook e-mail service? You might want to re-think it or change e-mail providers!
feels excessively focussing on the negative.


I’d make sure to align the visual styles of your homepage and your community homepage. Use the same logo and colour scheme etc.


I’d rename the category “forums”, it feels odd to have a “forums” category on your forum. Probably rename it to something more like “Discussion” or “Privacy” etc.


I don’t see a privacy policy or T&Cs, which feels strange. Even if you aren’t storing anything, make that explicit.


And in general, community management wise, I’m missing some Call to Actions.
What is your expected audience, what should they be discussing, why should be be discussing it here?
