I like it, so long as the gaps between the pineapple chunks aren't too large.

We invented it.  We have to take responsibility for it.

I can confirm the date range search is being worked on.

 

Then there are much better ways to do this than a major downgrade citing "positive results from the people who actually opted in" as the only reason.

The majority of people that have since posted about this after it has gone live have pretty much all been about how bad it is. Any feedback has been ignored or even dismissed with hostility.

 

Just the amount of condescension from this:

Thanks for the feedback.

We disagree and aren't at this time looking for further input from UX professionals.

 

 

Runs against the idea of "this is an iterative process of improvement".

 

Even the stats provided elsewhere on the polling breakdown doesn't actually paint it as "universally liked".

You'll be iterating for a long time if this is the starting line.

To those that were experiencing 'lag' when scrolling (aka poor rendering performance) in some browsers/configurations, I'm hoping you would've seen some improvement on that since 1800 UTC today. If you didn't, not to worry- we aren't done on improvements we can make there.

Apparently, no single web or app UI developer ever has heard the phrase "If it isn't broken, don't fix it."
I really do not see any justification for these changes other than they just felt like it, almost every change I've looked at has been a downgrade from how it performed previously. What could possibly be the reason? Mobile browsing? Who is downloading mods on their phones?

No image preview from search, we have to visit each mod, it's like diving in a garbage can. Please bring feature of preview images back and description expand at least on cursor.

Nobody is.

Sorry I mean,

The 40% "majority" as stated previously on here.

Don't ask how 40% is a majority because nobody f*#@ing knows. It's whatever inverted maths they use.

Is that what was said though?

It was actually: 40% of our users browse Nexus Mods on a mobile device, you're not the only user we are catering for. Whilst we always keep desktop users our focus (as modding happens on a desktop), we have to cater for everyone.
