Hi Discourse Team, with one of a recent upgrade it seems the category setting Suppress category from latest topics Is missing and I can’t find in the release notes, that this was intentional? Here is the latest information I’ve found from @jomaxro https://meta.discourse.org/t/hide-category-fr…

Thanks @sam for the timeframe (even though we are still not on the same page about this ““anti user feature””) :wink: Anyways, thanks @vinothkannans and ultimately thanks @RGJ for providing this plugin ! After a first issue and a super fast fix, I can confirm I have my beloved forum theme and flow …

[Bild] Krischan: so the more visibility they have the better. Can you expand on this? The new system actually gives them more visibility cause once someone starts interacting with the topics they will be become tracked and then these topics will start showing up for them in latest.
