Like a number of people I browse LW by using the “recentposts” URL to avoid missing anything new.
However in the sidebar it appears that “recent comments” and “recent posts” only seem to show those in Main/Promoted. With the move away from the use of Main, does this need to be fixed? Or is it not worth the effort given dwindling comment levels here and the eventual shift to a LW2.0?
Thank you! However, this appears to miss anything that is “Promoted”. The only recent example is
Free CFAR summer programs, and before that the LW survey. If other posts get promoted they may also get overlooked by browing from Discussion.

Made a github issue.
If you start from the Discussion page, you’ll get the recent posts and recent comments for Discussion.

Main is still a separate section, even there isn’t much happening there.
You can get new posts in Main from http://lesswrong.com/new/
There may not be a convenient way of tracking new comments on non-promoted posts in Main.
