Hello @Jonathan_Poyer, Yeah you need to click the topic to see the replies. But you can use theRight Sidebar Blocks theme component where you can set latest posts section. This theme is compatible with it since FKB Pro - Social theme - #102 by Don.
Or you can check the A reddit-ish theme for Discourse. This theme contains a latest posts block by default. Sorry, it is not contains the latest post but recent (latest) topics you see…
@LoveMCJ you can check easily where are the connectors with Plugin outlet locations theme component
