Mod Browsing Overhaul Discussion

[dnn00]

Dear Nexus admins, please tell me what people who have screen resolution less than 1920*1080 should do? "Trending Mods" look HUGE, while "More Mods" look SMALL. Not just "small", but have layout issues, this has not been fixed since the start of beta (and probably won't be). No, the "buy a better monitor" is not an option, because I have a laptop. 

I attached screenshots of this problem as soon as the beta started, but it was ignored (like, it's literally a problem with the site layout on small monitors, not a subjective opinion). But as I see it, all other complaints have been ignored too, so it's "okay".

Oh, and, of course, I blocked the "Collections" section with adblock IMMEDIATELY.

Is there any way for me to just use the old one? it was easy on my eyes and it didnt take a lot of memory to run.

Disappointing change without a way to revert it back. Poor decision.

[Wuestenratte]

Thanks, I hate it.

Can I go back to the old design, please? And get rid of those stupid "Collections".

I agree with a lot of what Aether posted: 

"I would like to have an option to not see "Popular Collections". I feel it takes the focus away from new mods. I have never used collections before and have no intention to ever do so, that's not to say they're a bad thing, I just don't want to see them.

I agree with the assertion that there is too much wasted space. The game title header takes up way too much space, I'd prefer if it wasn't even there. There is too much vertical space between sections (Trending Mods, Popular Collections, More Mods). It would also be nice if the page automatically expanded horizontally to fit the browser's width, allowing more mods to be shown in the "More Mods" section."

So did this new look go live today, or did I accidentally click on 'join beta"?  If I joined beta, how do I un-join?

Wow, I don't know if another UX update happened or I was still using the old site, but the new mods page is awful. Matte grey, no organization or lines. Just rectangles of varying sizes. Also f*#@ collections

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

Well this is certainly...a thing.  So I'm actually a (popular) collection user, but I still don't give 2 steaming craps about seeing popular collections on the front page.  So I've bookmarked a different page & will be using it to skip right past the frontpage 100% of the time.

Chucking my two bits in to say the new UI is dildos. Updating the look was just not necessary, especially not updating it to a glorified mobile site. Last I checked, I didn't download my mods for my PC games on my phone. Update your technical code, sure, but leave the UI alone. At least let us go back to the old one with a toggle in our user preferences. Even reddit managed that. Hell, even imgur managed that one.

 

And holy s#*!, no-one gives a flyer about collections. Stop trying to force them down our throats.
