Design overhaulerino

The next step after we get this forum working structurally. Relitigating the design of the front page, category pages, dropdowns, and user pages.

I’d love to have a sidebar like is pretty common in these Discourse groups, instead of hiding all that up in the navbar hamburger (cursed phrase).

Some of the dropdowns in there are wayyy too packed with stuff as well, makes it difficult to read and move around.

I’d installed the front page theme comp, we can test out some layouts to make the front page more exciting. As well as the category header theme comp which I think would help early navigation feel better for folks.

User pages need some help as well.

On this note, I just wanted to record here as I mentioned in our meeting tonight that the thing with the main page is just the “latest” bar being too overwhelming. The list of categories themselves and the colour-coding is great but I dont think it needs the latest updates there.
