A lot of users are complaining about ROBLOX being "greedy" and "stupid" with the new site theme. So let's go into it and I'll explain why it's GOOD.
---------------------------------
This theme actually condenses everything on the site except for what you're seeing into a few small buttons/toolbars, meaning that ROBLOX could actually get rid of their mobile website and this would still look great on mobile.

It also lets you get to four of the most commonly used features, fast: Games page, Catalog, Home, and the search menu. The reason Robux is up there is because, as a company, ROBLOX needs money in order to pay for things like their game servers, their website, employees, DevEx users, and a whole ton of other things.

The reason some things like groups and the forums are not in the main bar is because they're not as used/updated as the rest of the site, meaning that they would only take up space in the main bar that wouldn't get used as much as games or the catalog.
---------------------------------
So that's a concise explanation on the most noticed pieces of the new site theme, and as I find out more, I'll update the thread with a new post explaning even more features.

Also, the reason I put this in S&I is so people would notice this and hopefully this will also now help cut down useless posts like "OMFG REMOVE NEW SITE THEME PLS," which, mind you, are also against the WNTS!

If the header is for the "most commonly used features", why is Leaderboards still up there instead of Develop?

The button, not the icon.

"it did that already"

And now it does it even more, which makes the site, like I said, even more mobile friendly. (m.roblox.com doesn't have a few of the good features, like forums)

Plus, I didn't like the old theme anyways.

I do like the new layout, I just don't get why they'd put leaderboards and Robux in the section where the most important things are supposed to be, it should be develop and home/profile
