I agree with the things that have been removed from the
sidebar. But we have plenty of extra space there and if really
think the buttons on the front page are important, we should just
put them in the sidebar. It would reduce the front page
clutter and allow people coming in at a random page to see that
there's more on the site than whatever they're looking at.
BTW, oww is "slow" loading with 71% of sites being faster than us

I'm sure having many different icons doesn't help.
