This is excellent information.  It does seem bizarre that we have no way to
file a bug from the front page.  We do  need to think about how to make a
more useful website that does better volunteer capture.

I think though fixing the "file a bug" should be a priority.  I have
created two bugs, one in engagement list -
https://gitlab.gnome.org/Community/Engagement/General/issues/61 and a
matching bugzilla bug at https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=793490.

Let's fix it up for now and then we can think about how a redesign would
address some of these issues when it comes to volunteer capture.
