I’ll keep the comment feed as-is on the front page, but the whole “pick a random map to talk to the rest of the site” thing needs to be addressed, so I will do that through moderation instead. Like this very conversation happening here is no good (sorry Mattay), the Discord is available now so let’s use that in the future for OMDB/off-topic discussions. Map pages will continue to prioritise reviews though, that’s not changing
Reviews are the way forward, they deserve more space since they are higher quality and higher effort than comments. They deserve to have that visibility far more than comments. To that effect, comments will disappear from the front page as a big feed -- a ton of people use them as a site-wide chatroom on some random poor mapset which sucks pretty bad. Reviews will replace them completely, and I'll copy the whole "featured reviews" thing from RYM to highlight good reviews.
There's gonna be a friends page soon though where you can see what all your friends are doing in one big combined feed, so you'll still be able to see new comments that way.
i hated this for 3 years but it has slowly seeped into my soul
Don't Stop Me Now's goofy little cousin
Yeah it's random, we're just lucky so far
Random map of the day is a thing now!
