But that is the forum host, I don't know if it can be disabled. But the other day I found out Nexus can disable the reputation leaderboard and daily badges can be removed from profiles. So yeah, the forum platform does have some things Nexus can enable/disable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrnexu Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Thank you for putting the "Last Update" sort order into the profile. I would like the option for that to always be my default sort order. 4 mods per line is 33% better than 3 mods per line. It is still 20% worse than 5 mods per line. Maybe this could be a configuration option. The grey color of the existing profile background is easier on the eye than the black background of the new profile. Maybe it's a contrast eye-strain thing. Even here, I find myself closing one eye to type. Might just be me. Close. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it is not, Nexus staff think only very few of us have issues with the high contrast and have told us to deal with it. More people need to speak out about it. To complain about the high contrast about the new forum theme go here. For complaints about it in beta keep bringing it up in this thread with your other concerns. Which by the way I did a full list on my own complying top concerns and as of yesterday I noted you generally showed like of the update but have concerns over the wasted space and the loss of the fifth tile. As of today you have bumped up your concerns to also the high contrast, so I updated my spreadsheet. Edited March 29 by HollownessDevoured Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I've noticed that I'm not the only one averted by sudden UI size, fonts etc. inconsistency I'll faintly hope that there will be an option to keep the classic design (not just the color scheme), as it always has been easy to read, use, it scales properly, has just the right font size/weight etc etc. Not a fan of 'mobile' looks and 'modern means rounded corners' and all the CSS-fixing that entails either. Really hope that when the doomsday comes to mod pages, this topic will be flooded with more design-critical posts. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollownessDevoured Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 (edited) So since I am afk from the PC this long weekend, I decided to test out the beta on mobile view. This update is of course was already mentioned meant to be mobile prioritized. It is almost 100% mobile customized, now that I see it. No wonder you are reluctant to change anything you decided mobile over PC, bar none. Which is a shame. If you refuse to reduce the high contrast on text heavy pages, then consider text heavy pages fit in a grey tile/page like mods/media tiles are. This will reduce at least some of the high strain. You keep your colour theme and might be enough for some users struggling with the eye strain of this high contrast. As mentioned above, there will be at least a bump in critical design/colour feedback will come when forced upon the general public. I still highly suggest you fix before hand, to avoid this, but if you want to wait and see, that is of course your prerogative.

Qrsr Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 Lets twist it, if there are as much users like those complaing about the current design, a handful so to speak, having problems with the UI, are visually impaired its a fracture of the majority not complaining at all. Telling us few who complain about the new design there were people complaining about readability i must seriously ask myself if its enough people in case of a vote to force an UI change. Please make the UI change optional and/or prompt a default setting based on machine used, smartphone, PC, console, etc. For PC users, prompt back to default UI.

HollownessDevoured Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 @Qrsr Sadly, the voting premise doesn't usually work with site changes/updates, the best cases is a compromise or internal personalization options. The reality is either they pretend they'll consider changing or say they have no plans on changing it. "Completely reverting back" voting protests is something I have never seen work with the online world sadly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optional old UI isnt towards a protest against the new UI. It would be interesting to have a voting feature for the new changes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qrsr Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Here, wouldnt it be prefect, to have this (used fandom wiki as preset): But also adaptive fonts? I think everyone would profit if there is some kind of option, to allow users on their profile to change default settings of UI like: visually impaired yes/no (prompts pop-up when user is new to nexusmods) if yes font scale bigger if yes color theme defaults to black Red–green color blindness yes/no etc. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HollownessDevoured Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 @Qrsr I believe fandom/wikia also has personal CSS last time I remember. Highly customizable but you need to have some CSS experience. On top of light/dark mode. The sad thing is light mode can be too high contrast too; so problem isn't exactly solved. I prefer dark mode, but I never experienced this level of high contrast dark mode till beta and forum theme update. I'd prefer a less contrast compromise, but I don't really mind how it is implemented, as long as my eyes can handle it. Dark mode/Medium grey mode aka classic or custom. Or easiest: reduce how bright the whitest white is and/or how dark the darkest shade is. At this point as long as it doesn't hurt my eyes I'll be good/fine. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
