It's a good start but wastes a lot of space advertising the mobile apps instead of focusing on the web experience.
- Make the web experience more focused.
- Use a frontend framework to create a more fluid experience (reloading for every click is kind of old skool). -
fyroc58609yI think it should show notifications as well. Also, it needs a back button somewhere. I know I can hit back on my browser, but a back button feels needed for a web version of a mobile app.

dfox426039y@nblackburn thanks for the feedback. I think it could be a good idea to make the sidebar smaller once you're logged in.
I see the advantages to less reloads but overall right now the format of the web version works well towards two purposes - it lets you use almost the full app on the web but it is also very easy for search engines to index since the core experience doesn't use JavaScript. We definitely want both of those goals to be met. -
dfox426039y@fyroc notifications will definitely come. We cut a few things from the initial launch to get it out quicker. The same goes for a back button, that's definitely something we want.

Nojil14549yI would love to see a pressure sensitive menu for the iPhone app. Press hard and a little menu that allows me to quick post a rant would be cool :)
