Revert to the old categories page

I’m not sure if this is a test, but please revert back to the old/default one. I like having topics and categories in one, just having categories or just having topics kinda defeats the purpose of a homepage.

Seems to be only like this on desktop layouts, maybe a bug?

I am aware it is a setting, but from a UX perspective it’s a nightmare, it’s a huge waste of space.

this is a case where the “always show reply indicator” would have been useful!

I can confirm that the design team is looking into giving Meta some love :heart: :+1:

There may be a few more tweaks and try-outs while they test things, but we’ll try and keep it as unobtrusive as possible until the revamp is finalised. :crossed_fingers:

I’ll feed back the feedback though. :pray:

Is this why the order of buttons is also different? It probably makes more sense but it’s also making me crazy

Thank you for reverting the categories view though, this can be closed
