In it's current form random story button isn't very exciting. Chances are that you'll land on 1 chapter story\story in a language you don't understand\story from a category you aren't interested in..... It would be nice to have settings for this button allowing users to filter out stories by category\language\date of the last update\number of chapters\number of likes\etc. In this case random story button will be far more useful for finding new stuff to read
Could be useful, though there might be a lot of options necessary to define the preferences. But maybe that could be combined with a front page filtering suggestion.
