Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 The issue with the current layout is that it doesn’t really look like a
 list of interactive forums at a glance, and people are mistaking it for an
 index of static content.

 Per the [https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02QB8GMM/p1550095645063900
 latest Meta meeting], the consensus was to move the 3 columns at the top
 below the list of forums and see if that improves discoverability.
 Additionally, I think removing some excess padding as suggested in #2570
 would help here.

 As a next step, we could look into adding topic and post counts, as seen
 previously in [attachment:"4007.png"].

 If the grid layout is still too difficult to scan whereas a list layout
 would be easier, a redesign to make the usability better is also an
 option.
