User blog comment:Toughpigs/My Home -- new feature launches on Wednesday/@comment-13301-20091007182109

We are not against MyHome. We know it's a great feature and we like it, but we don't like it to force a redirect where the user wants to go to the main page.

There are several links to MyHome (at the top, and in the widget community). I'm pretty sure that people know how to go there, but please, don't force people to visit it when they want to get the main page. Don't be evil.

I know that the logo gives you the main page, but I always link the wiki from outside using only the full domain, not the full url to the main page, and people expect to see this. I and other people are completely against it,

Your stats sows nothing, because people, as they go into that page the first time, wants to explore and play with it, but that doesn't mean that people want to get that page when they come from the redirect.

If you're so sure about that, disable the redirect by default unless overriden by preferences, and add a link inside MyHome to enable the redirect directly in that page (without having to go to preferences).
