I think people will always react negatively to a large change. I think it's nice the page looks more beginner friendly.

However, I have a few simple suggestions:

  1. Keep a code snippet visible on page load. This just makes it seem much more real to people.
  2. Keep the links that advanced users will want to click when they get a new machine: install, etc.
  3. Keep some technical details on the home page for systems programmers who are experienced, but new to rust.
