I'm a big fan of the main landing page, the filters and highlights are great for finding questions that you might be able to help answer.
My only real issue with it is that it doesn't always display the information about who asked the question, and instead will display information about who last tried to answer the question, or even worse, who last modified the question:
I can understand wanting to know who last answered the question, as if they have a high reputation you can maybe rule out the question as "may not need further input", but showing who last modified it makes no sense to me, their involvement is largely irrelevant.
On the other hand, who ASKED the question is absolutely relevant - or at least the information about their "reputation" is. With low reputation questioners, you go in knowing you may never receive any feedback on your contribution, and on some days you may prefer not to put the effort in. With high reputation questioners, there's (usually) a certain guarantee that the question will be well-considered, and any contribution you might make will get some kind of feedback.
My question is: Is there any way to make it so it only displays information about who asked the question? And if not, can it please be made so?
Alternatively, I would appreciate an explanation as to why anyone other than the "modifier" would be interested in seeing that a question was last modified by someone other than the original questioner.
Another example of this that completely blows my mind with how irrelevant it is in this context:
That's my name showing up on the landing page, and all I'd done on that question was edit my answer! Who is that information for, and how is it informing them? I wasn't aware that sometimes the "modified" thing is about the answers as well. It's like they've got an audit log for each Question and they're displaying a subset of the information from the latest entry.
