The header is kind of a mouthful when reading it. Thoughts on this change?
| HOMEPAGE_HEADER="A collaborative personal privacy advocacy community." | |
| HOMEPAGE_HEADER="A collaborative community advocating for personal privacy." |
Is the adjective "personal" modifying "privacy" or "community" in your original header?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
i think we can leave the word personal out: "community advocating for privacy". It doesn't add much and privacy is personal anyway.

Others to consider:
| HOMEPAGE_HEADER="A collaborative personal privacy advocacy community." | |
| HOMEPAGE_HEADER="The collaborative personal privacy community." |
| HOMEPAGE_HEADER="A collaborative personal privacy advocacy community." | |
| HOMEPAGE_HEADER="The crowdsourced personal privacy community." |
I would also be open to an entirely different sentence if we have any ideas.
@ph00lt0 I added personal to distinguish our organization from orgs like https://iapp.org/

i just think it is long. Like the packaging you showed on the forum as inspiration I think it's best to stay consise.

Yeah, I don't like the current version. I'd probably prefer to drop advocacy than personal if we shorten it, I think.

I like showcasing a link to the Discourse forum (it is one of the strengths of Privacy Guides after all), but I'm not sure about the button text.
Ideally, people who land on the site for the first time would browse the Knowledge Base or Recommendations before asking a question on the forum, rather than ask a question on the forum that is already answered on the site, with a community member responding by providing a link to the relevant page (here is a recent example of this). This is just my opinion though; I would love other people's take on this.

i think i prefer the ask a question. It's more of a low barrier than having to sign up for something.

It's more of a low barrier than having to sign up for something.
This was also my thought process, so I don't think I like @redoomed1's suggested change here, but I'm open to other suggestions that aren't just saying "join us" too, because ask a question isn't great either.

Maybe something along the lines of "Participate in [...]"?

Upon further reflection, I think we should just not add this button at all actually.

Perhaps just “find recommendations” ? Think these buttons are best if compact.
There was a problem hiding this comment.
I actually expanded it from "Recommended Tools" to add that action word which I think is better. Find Recommendations... could work, but I'd also prefer to keep the word "Tools" on the homepage.

@jonaharagon the forum posts look so much nicer now, thank you! The new design looks good so far, though I do slightly miss the curves of our current site. Will add some more comments down the line |
