I have posted this with screen shots and videos in the other sections, look for Site Upgrade posts and you will see this discussed at length
We are moving to a tag / label system, which those labels and tags you see, the colored blocks, they are links.
You filter and move around via the tags, you can keep them all jumbled up, or you can filter them to look at only what you want to see
It’s a way to streamline the system, add tags for searching and filtering, and include finer details without having to stack forum on top of forum. The idea of having 30 separate sections is no longer best practices. As the software features change we are positioning ourselves to take advantages of them.
Using a software like we did in 2008 is silly, it’s 2020, software is evolving we need to evolve with it, we are trying to be at the forefront of those changes. Think about those who use FB, it’s not a list, it’s millions of groups you never see but exist there. Here you can add in groups and features and while you may not see it at first, doesn’t mean its not there.
The site is pretty much identical, we only removed a few seldom used sections. We just changed the system so you can adjust what you see and how, as well we can filter and fine tune to make it more granular if you want that
