Thanks for the quick answer. I know you guys are getting bombarded with feedback, and sometimes people aren’t too nice about it. I use Firefox and do have an ad blocker, but the issue only started with the page redesigns as far as I can tell. For me, it’s noticeable on the authors' page in the "Mods" section and on the main page with the "Trending Mods" and other media. Maybe adding some color customization down the line could help? I’m not a web developer, so maybe it’s not worth the trouble, but I and a few others in this thread would appreciate it. It’s good to hear that you want to adjust the "Popular Collections." The issue I have with the search bar is more that it covers the entire screen, which can be a bit disorienting when quickly opening and closing the search function. I guess I can live with it, though. I wouldn’t be mad if the option to search for another game quickly stays, since it doesn’t bother me too much I just found it a bit weird. Overall, thanks for all your work. I know it’s really hard to engage with the user base while also translating feedback into actionable changes. Maybe it would help if you opened an official FAQ on the main site listing the main complaints along with explanations. Apart from the forum, there aren’t many places to get info on why certain things were changed.

My Feedback: I have almost 800 Mbps, and since the update, I’ve noticed longer delays when loading pages. Everything now takes a second longer before I can interact again. I already noticed this with the change to the mod authors' page, where there was a stark contrast between the regular mod page for games and the authors' page (the authors' page took longer to load). I found the clearly segmented tabs and buttons of the previous design more readable. The newer darker tone makes it harder for my eyes to read the white text. Why are "Popular Collections" always shown under "Trending Mods," and why do they take up so much space? I thought collections already had a separate tab. It just forces the user to scroll further to get to "More Mods" below it. The "More Mods" tab now has bigger thumbnails for each mod, but it only displays 4 instead of 5 in a row, overall reducing the amount of information shown. The same issue applies to the "Trending Mods" section above. The search function now takes up the entire screen when you click on the bar, which is a weird change. It shows a preview of mods that fit your search, but why? You're already going to press enter in a second anyway, making the preview useless clutter that covers your screen every time you quickly want to search for something. The previous preview didn’t take up the entire screen and had the same effect. Why can I search for games in the search function when I’m already on a specific game’s mod page? Overall, I’m frustrated by the lack of official acknowledgment. I’m a paying customer, and it feels like I’m screaming into the void, with my feedback not mattering at all in the end.
