My reading of this is that I'm on the right track.

Wait a sec, isn't the idea that the first thing you see on the page is a featured video that you can immediately start watching/streaming? If so, then that's a huge improvement over what we have currently IMO. I think coming on the page and immediately being presented with the content of what we do rather than a bunch of text is a very good way to get people involved.

Leaving them out for now; will probably open up a beta without them. (This doesn't mean that existing QC/opinion data will be deleted; there's no reason to delete it.)
I (with the rest of the Machine) have been tossing around an idea for alternative system that may spur greater activity: https://github.com/amvorg-underground/catalog/issues/31
That issue doesn't really describe the system in that much detail, but that's because I don't have much else concrete to write about it at the moment.

Then don't watch videos in a hospital.

1) It has no colors, other than the video
2) It is pretty much sterile. Like a floor. Or a beton block. Except the, well, video.
3) The creator has repeatedly said that he would like to keep it this way.
I wrote:The sterility of each page depends on two things.
1. The user managing the page (e.g. profile, video pages)?
2. For search pages, it is the set of users whose videos/profiles/etc. show up in the results.
The degree to which this new layout appears sterile is therefore entirely up to you.
