Let's compare https://openstreetmap.org/ and
http://earth.nullschool.net/ .

With OSM, the first time visitor is zoomed in right to where his IP is
coming from, at a zoom level not to far, and not too near... just right.
The user is immediately "involved"!

With earth.nullschool.net alas he just shown the whole world, with not
even a circular "zoom to my location" button in the corner he might
press upon.

openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website#1586 is
how OSM does it.

OK I found the button deep in the menu.
Perhaps use one of https://goo.gl/images/3GnfGi and put it on the front page.
