I very much prefer the old home screen. The shopfront on the home screen is a *huge issue* for me because my children use a kobo and now they are seeing unsolicited promotions for books even I would not read, let alone allow them to read. An 8 year old should not be seeing "New & Hot Crime" advertising with books by Lee Child, for example, on their kobo homepage. This pushing of adult book sales promotion is offensive to me.
It already annoyed me that I have had to open a second kobo account for my kids so my kids can't see all my "in the cloud" books on their device and download them without my permission (I use calibre to upload books to both devices) ... this is taking things one step too far. The less books are downloaded to the device, the more random the promotions seem to be and this is just not acceptable for under 18s.
