First off, what a treat to be back. I think it's incredible that so much has been saved, and the site is looking so sleek and easy to navigate. However, feedback is the name of the forum, so here we go with some first impressions.
I have no idea how easy to implement these would be, or indeed if they're already in the works, and I also do apologise if these have been mentioned elsewhere, which actually brings me to...
Search functionality for the forums. This feels like it would be especially useful for the feedback thread/help to check if anything you wanted to say has been mentioned previously. The search for the website overall looks to work great, and I can understand why it doesn't include forum posts/topics from the main page, but maybe a specific search once you're in the forums tab? (Could fit left of the sort-by dropdown?)
Video lengths on thumbnails. I think it's a great piece of information to have off the bat if you're browsing for something to watch, though I'm not sure how feasible this one is based on how the hosting is set up currently with some videos being the embedded YouTube versions.
Sort by X when looking at specific shows page. Especially looking at something like the Morning Somewhere page it feels like the ability to sort episodes by Oldest First would be useful. This functionality already works great for the comments sections, so hopefully this makes sense as an option too.
Filter by X. Following on from the above example, being able to filter down to something like "2024 episodes" would maybe be useful for someone trying to catch up. While it might be cluttered, having a sidebar with links to jump to the already defined sections (similar to how the sidebar on the main Community page works for listing the forums) could work by jumping down the page to that section?)
I hope this is around the level of feedback you guys are looking for and I'm not just being super nitpicky right out of the gate. I cannot stress enough how great the overall first impressions of the site are. Thanks for bringing back so many memories, and I can't wait to see what the future holds.
