Difference between "non-member" chess.com and "member" chess.om

I already once complained between the difference for non-members and members at chess.com. When I go to chess.com I get nicely edited starting page with all new items at one page. The moment I log in as diamond member I get a boring starting page and have to collect all the new articles, blogs etc. myself.

Today it is even worse. I got a message about a new feature at chess.com about Top Chessplayer, an article by David Kaufmann at my Mac. As all issues concerning chess is handled at my Windows PC (reason: Chessbase only runs under Windows) I switched to the PC, selected chess,com, logged in as diamond member and since then can't find this article.

Does anybody know where I can find that new feature? Or is it only for non-members?

As a guest, the main page loads. https://www.chess.com/

You can get to that by clicking the Chess.com pawn/logo in the menu.

 

When you log in, it defaults to your home page. If you follow specific members, that will show under the Activity section, under the Following drop-down.

thanks. that helps. I wrote 24 days ago. But today I realize it is no the case.

When going to chess.com I saw an article by Han Schut about the Steps Method (which assume is the one from the Netherlands whch I applicate too). So I logged in. The article was gone.. By clicking the Chess.com pawn/logo I did not get the starting page I had before. Neither "news" nor "articles" nor "blogs" help for getting the desired artile by Han Schut.

So I guess, I log off and enjoy the benefits of being a guest.
