Hmm. I wonder what this emberjs is? I'll just click the home page link and find out. Oh. That just gives me the discussion board, which i'm already on. A bit more looking, a bit more hovering, and.... there isn't one. Close tab.

This seems like a variant of PBSALTPH, a silly initialism I coined when I found myself ranting about product blogs that don't link to product home pages [1].

Generally speaking, any subdomain or isolated "region" of a product web site should always provide a prominent link back to the product's home page. A good option is to use the product's logo as that link. Using the logo to link to anything other than the product home page is a crime against the gods of user experience.

Could not agree more, there was a post on HN about this recently[1] and I also found this[2] one when searching for the first.
