I was going to delete this because I ended up sounding a lot harsher than I wanted to, sorry. But you answered, so let me try to describe some of my annoyances. Hope I'm not being too annoying or entitled myself.
I was confused with something I can't replicate now in the FSR page, which I guess was the bug? iirc I was asked to login without having an account. Then I didn't found a "Sign up" button, so I tried login. The section is not clickable, I need to specifically click on the word Login, which violates fitt's law. The login page is very complex visually, everything in full width, the primary button is very bright with no contrast with the letters (contrast violation), while the Register now button too closely resembles a common container in style, so it took a couple seconds for me to notice it properly, a bit of a heuristic problem, like reverse consistency or lack of affordance. Excessive minimalism?

Then the home is a bit cluttery, with no section being highlighted/a lot of similar objects in style and a large list of every interaction in the site under the features, which can't be turned off because turning off all options leaves me with reviews anyway. A separate page for ALL interactions in large numbers, with a filter, then if it seems desirable, let it appear in the home page more discreetly. 3, maybe 5, 7 items at most, with much less importance, per miller's law.
Allowing the latest (Database) Featured entry to take a lot more space, like a banner, would also help with visual hierarchy in the home by pointing towards the site's actual core focus.
