Mod Browsing Overhaul Discussion

[Solomonlike]

I was trying to figure out what happened to my view. I opted into the beta not realizing what it would change. I do not like this new design and it makes it more difficult to find mods. I think I turned something on by mistake. I guess I did, the beta. LOL. Not a fan of this new view for mods.

What I find most interesting is, staff here is claiming that the 'reception' is mostly positive, yet, here we have a thread at 135 pages, and from what I am seeing, it is almost universally negative........ How does that work?

Its quite obvious the dev's are just not listening, and just ignoring the people who did not like the new UI changes...

They are reading this, and reddit, and discord, and polls feedback. There have been replies from various staff on all those channels. There will be continued comms on this I am quite sure.

And with the simple minded thought that 40% of the user base is more then 60% of it?

No one at NexusMods has said 40% is more than 60%, that's nonsensical. 

Desktop is the focus, as that's where most of the usage comes from. Mobile users account for 40% of the site usage, and so they are also accounted for.

Sure, I can help with that. This forum is only one of the channels of communication on which we have received feedback. The overall reception is judged from all of the channels of communication.

Well, considering this is the forum for the site in question, and the folks that actually use the site are quite likely to be here, rather than elsewhere....... Isn't the 'consensus' here more likely to reflect the actual sentiments of the site users???

I promise you they only ran polls for folks who frequent the forums.

You must know something I don't! 

In reality the hotjar powered polls which ran during and after the beta were available to all site users. However once the quota is used up then the poll is no longer available. This of course means only limited conclusions can be drawn from the results, and we are not blind to that.

It's a hypothesis for sure! Please rest assured there will be plenty of debriefing and discussion around the nature and volume of feedback received from each channel.

Fantastic, so even you yourself admit the data is flawed and yet continue to insist it isn't mostly negative. I don't even know how to react, should I be appalled? melancholy? maybe maniacal laughter is more appropriate.

The data is a representative sample, I do not accept that means the same thing as flawed.

Whether it's mostly negative isn't a matter of opinion, only fact- it isn't.  I know that doesn't chime with your (valid) opinions, but it is the case.

I'll continue to reiterate though, of course we are still going to improve things.

What are these supposed channels?
