Yes, we agree that it’s a good idea to remove the meta category from the front page. In fact, I just removed it.
People can use the community category to discuss general topics related to the way the community is organized. For complaints, bug reports, discussion about moderation, etc. that are specific to this forum, the meta category can be used.
Even if the meta category is not on the front page anymore, it is still very easily accessible.
Either by clicking on “all categories” and filtering to a specific category:
Or by going on the “Categories” page:
That way we can keep the front page interesting for the rest of the users who don’t want to participate in those discussions.
