I agree. This is a very cool idea, but the landing page is a bit of a mess. It’s reiterating the same thing multiple times in different ways, which is confusing and unnecessary. I assume the author did this to fill space. It’s also broken on mobile. I would suggest:

1: Header with statement as you have it (Share your problems…)

2: Explore, interact section as you have it

3: Three to five of the most recently posted problems

4: Call to action (sign up)

So you have what it is, how it works, an example, sign up.

Also, are you monetizing this? If not, why require a sign up at all to view problems? Why is the only option to sign up/login with a Google account?
