By default, Community posts don’t show up in Forum Favorites, or on the Frontpage at all. You have to check a box to show them.
My recommendation for people interested in EA is to read the EA Newsletter, which filters more heavily than the Forum. effectivealtruism.org ranks first in Google for EA, and has a bunch of different newsletter signup boxes.
As for the Forum, this is part of why the Motivation Series exists (and will soon be linked to from the homepage). As for more up-to-date content, I’d think that the average high-karma Frontpage post probably does a reasonable job of representing what people in EA are working on. But I’d be interested to hear others’ thoughts on what the Forum could change to better meet this use case!
