I can say my peace without the vitriol, rudeness, and empty threats.

Because your piece is pretty easy to say when it's "Well, I like it and it's too late for you all to complain now, so..." and unnecessary clap backs at people's criticism of the change and the poor handling of feedback by staff. All it does is bait reactions and derail the thread into arguments which is the stuff that get's it locked. Which is why I won't engage with you further.

What an odd way to word that, by the way.

For comedy purposes, here's a thread from 2017 where people are complaining about what a horrible redesign the new site is.  That new site is, of course, the one you are all saying we need to go back to because it's so much better than the new, new one.   Ever the same.

The previous redesign was also awful... but at least it was just a redesign. Not a removal of functionality and worsening of the user experience. I absolutely hated the last redesign, I thought it was awful and didn't deserve to be released... but I'd still prefer that over this mess that gives me constant headaches just looking at pages, that causes severe anxiety whenever I try to search for anything, that feels unresponsive and unintuitive and like Microsoft spat out a Windows 8-inspired UI onto a formerly perfectly fine website.

Looks like the tampermonkey scripts to remove the /games part in the url so that you can use the old site ui no longer work. Well at least not for me. It just refreshes the page constantly until you get a 10 minute suspension. That's a bummer. And the download history still doesn't seperate games anymore. If anyone is curious you now have to be on a specific mod for whatever game you're currently browsing and then click my mods then download history. It won't work if you click straight to download history as all the mods will be together for every game.

I agree with what people are saying here. The old design was fine; the new one is a step back in so many ways already mentioned in this thread (space usage, layout, search usability, missing features).

If this really is "part of your ongoing plan to improve our website experience", then I implore you to listen to the hundreds of comments of user feedback that have been posted (not just here, but on the site's Reddit and Discord too) instead of adopting a "we know best" mentality.
