What?

The old Quicksearch that didn't open up a new goofy window of Tiles, was much much faster, and didn't get between you and the page you're already browsing.

Not getting your meme about my comment

Whilst we cannot use "#8e8e8e on top of #232326" as some of you have suggested, as this does not meet WCAG AAA accessibility standards. 

However, we're actively working on adjusting the contrast values to help resolve the issues you're having. We've made a quick edit to part of the game homepage to see if this helps with your issues. 
You can open the the full image to make it closer to using the website directly https://staticdelivery.nexusmods.com/mods/3333/images/12393/12393-1742919067-1216899835.png

Can you please let me know if this helps? If it doesn't, please let me know which parts of the page are you finding problematic.

It pains me to say it, but if there is a difference in background colour, I am not seeing it. It's as though I am being asked to look at different paint swatches, and they are all a tiny variation of the same dark black.

On the other hand, the font featured in your image? It's actually blurrier than what it is currently (as I type) on the Skyrim Special Edition's home page, which appears relatively clear in comparison to that which is in the image.

Just implying the new quick section is slower than the old drop-down search, since now you've got to press several more buttons, like actually pressing the button to search for MODS rather than it just doing that by default.

I want advanced search options back. Especially the ability to search for text within mod description.

On the mods listing page you should find that in the left hand side bar.

Quick search on other items (collections, images, videos) will also match on their description, and we hope to add that to mods as well.

We're adding a preference to allow users to choose their default quick search, expect it to land in the next week or so.

Please don't bombard me with "sure but what about X?!" 😅

On one hand I want to thank you while on another I want to know why you can do this but not just stick it on the website by default, everyone would rather have list view.

Better yet add it as a setting either in the account section or just on the mods list page as a compromise.

Probably because he's an employee, not the owner, so he doesn't get to make those kinds of decisions.

They've already said that returning list view is on their list of considerations.

Just so you all have another reason to hate on me, I'll say this:  I'm wondering how long Robin's patience will last with the people trash talking his employees and his company on his own forums.

maybe he shouldn't have sabotaged his own website made for PC game modding with a shitty mobile phone UI no one asked for then. i honestly don't care what he thinks, he and nexus could disappear tomorrow and modding would be fine, someone else could spin up websites to host mods. his relationship to all this is completely parasitic making money off of other people's work.

Well, he IS providing a rather nice platform for those mods..... Granted, some features leave a bit to be desired..... No one else has anything NEAR this scale for mod hosting. It is a LOT of work, and not exactly cheap, given the amount of storage, and bandwidth the site eats. The fact that Nexus is still here, after NUMEROUS other sites have come and gone, is a vote of confidence that the site will CONTINUE to be here, thus, it is a good place to showcase your work.

I am admin on another mod hosting site, and we aren't anywhere near this size...... We have been around for quite some time, but, don't generate near the traffic this place does.... Mainly because, we couldn't afford the infrastructure for such an undertaking..... Kudos to Robin for managing to not only stay in business, but EXPAND his business to the scale that it is today.

Now, if we could just get him to give users a CHOICE on which interface we like better.... That would be stellar. 😄

Ok. What action do you suggest?

And therein lies the problem. Simply do to the size of this place, the folks participating in this particular thread, have all of zero power to affect any change at all. At least, nothing beyond minor tweaks to what we are being force-fed.  There might be a couple hundred (being generous) folks in here, but, nexus has over what? 30 MILLION members??? We aren't even a drop in the ocean.... Even if EVERYONE in this thread canceled their premium subscription, I doubt it would even be a blip on the balance sheet. So yeah. Robin can ignore everything we have to say, and be confident that any consequences, will be minor at best, but, most likely, not even noticeable.....
