Why do you think the second column is interesting? The only thing 
that doesn't fit is thread subjects, which can be very long and 
you can read them in full once you click through. The group 
descriptions in the first column, on the other hand, are not 
visible elsewhere and are more interesting for newcomers.

Perhaps simply because it's bigger than on forum.dlang.org?

Except for the bold part, believe it or not, it's exactly the 
same font as we use on dlang.org, size and all (Verdana 14px). 
And as for the bold part, it doesn't look so bad on Windows, so 
what does that say about the famed OS X font rendering? :D
