I added a pull request that would fix navigation for me and probably many other people (github.com)

The only thing that's missing from the new navigation layout is in my opinion an easily accessible "Frontpage" button like there was in the old navigation layout. So I made a pull request to re add the Frontpage, Settings and Explore buttons back into the sidebar for easier access.

How about this:

Completely custom pins

The frontpage is accessible at the logo on the navbar?

Yes but that button is way over in the top left corner. I use my browser in full screen as are probably most people. And on a 27" screen that's a whole lot of mouse movement every time.

I made some more changes on the pull request so that it wouldn't change a thing for people who like it the way it is now and provide an option for people who would like it different like me.

Yeah, it's a bit annoying.

Many sites do this even if the logo/title isn't far away from other controls, I guess to have a more "obvious" home button.
