When I type "gbatemp.net" into the address bar, I except to get thrown straight into the forums, but instead I get thrown on the "customizable" homepage. There is nothing customizable about it. The only thing that isn't just admin-promoted posts is your own notes, so I set the notes to link straight to the forums. However, I still have the huge "newsfeed" banner LOCKED on the top of the page and there's no way to either put it to the bottom or permanently remove it, as I do not care about it and it just distracts me from the forums.
If I actually cared about the admins' personal opinions, I would click on the "news and announcements" forums and read the threads on there.
Let's say it again: This is a site where you can discuss Nintendo products, and get advice on homebrew as it is the biggest forum that allows this stuff.
If I wanted Nintendo news, I would read the DOZENS of other websites that repeat and milk the same exact message. Even a small, "stability" FW update has like 50 articles the second it releases. No need to add a 51st and shove it in my face. I already know.
Stop trying to repurpose this website to something else by shoving stuff in people's faces. Make a subdomain like "news.gbatemp.net" with this stuff for the people that are interested in it.
Also, STOP pushing "TempStyle n+1" on people that want to use older TempStyles. I never wanted to use 3.2, as I was used to 3, yet here I am using that. You'd expect the "theme" button to let you select "TempStyle Legacy" or something, instead it is just a dark/light theme selection.
