Pretty much my exact sentiment about all of this, just a bit blunter than I've said it. Frankly, with how silent they've been to everyone but the bad faith actors, I wish I'd've started like this as well. Been feeling obligated to keep an eye on this thread so that my silence isn't taken as a good sign by the team, so...chiming in to say yep, still unhappy!

This is pretty much it. My wife's sharing a mod she found while we're winding down in bed for the night? Using her phone. Otherwise? Using her desktop client where mods can actually be downloaded for the game. This "mobile-friendly before desktop-friendly" push around the Internet the last decade and a half has been insane. Especially for a modding site where the entire purpose is to download mods onto a desktop, going mobile friendly as your primary focus is genuinely ridiculous.

Well, if they're ignoring Reddit, let me paste the constructive feedback I wrote there in response to the CM that asked for actionable feedback when I poked my head in there this morning: A landing page for a single game's mods refusing to use half the width of a monitor is a problem when the individual mod boxes are three times their old size. If the goal was to make each mod have more dedicated layout space, then the entire screen needs to be utilized to not make the same information from before take up three times the space. Clicking on "view more mods" and then needing to scroll past the same 16 mods because the new search mechanic assumes you're wanting everything (when the old one started at the next mod in the list) is backwards progress. Page 1 of "more results" only has four more results than the landing page, making it 80% useless. Collections being between the hot mods and the newest mods is a poor space for it - below the new mods but before the posts about the game would be a better location as new mods are more likely immediately relevant to a user than a complete collection. The landing page being so much more spaced out makes it much less readable than before. Used to be you could see the hot mods and some of the new mods before you had to scroll. Now, depending on which machine I'm on, I either can only see the hot mods, or can see that and the top half of collections. This cannot be fixed by zooming out or in, meaning the only option is to scroll. It feels like a way to force more interaction with the site rather than anything user-friendly. I could go on but I figure that's plenty of "actionable feedback" for the moment.

First time ever on this forum. I have always, without exception, gone to nexusmods via a bookmark. I go to check on new mods and then hop right out after. I personally was not aware a redesign was there in opt in status and was caught blindsided as a result. Partially on me I suppose for not being engaged in the community, but even so, poorly communicated to the broader, less engaged with site changes users. My screen on the mods page, until I scroll down, is almost entirely blank space. I have the top five hot mods and half of the new collections suggestion, and the rest is blank (possibly ads being blocked?) Compared to yesterday, when I could see the entire top two rows of the newest mods (what I go to check). Needing to scroll just to see the newest 16 mods, arranged in a 4x4 grid and refusing to use half of my monitor width, is abysmal design. Needing to click on "show more" and then scroll past those same 16 mods to see something new (rendering page 1 mostly useless) and also still refusing to use a quarter of my monitor width...also abysmal design. From one staff comment, 40% of people use mobile to browse, which explains this mobile layout. The push to mobile friendly stuff is a constant frustration - but on a site that is only to look at and not to DO anything with unless you're on a PC, to not focus first and foremost on the desktop experience is...insane to me.
