Mod Browsing Overhaul Discussion

[tpunk23]

Constructive criticism in other words "anything but complaints telling us how bad it is. So that we can continue marching on like nothing is happening." Basically unless you have something to say for improving the design everyone hates with minor concessions. that don't involve SCRAPPING IT LIKE PEOPLE WANT YOU TO. or you paid for premium you do not exist.

I keep asking this but keep getting ignored. Are we going to get list view back?

[tpunk23]

Probably not they have been blatantly ignoring anything thats not directly spun for the new design.  Also I noticed that I no longer need a moderator to approve my posts. Yay I can answer freely and eventually get banned. In order to silence me cause thats how freedom of speech works.

It's something we're looking at, along with potentially other layout types to give more choice.

Will they all look like a tablet? Better question is one of the choices just the old layout?

Realized there was a second better question

Respectfully, it's quite the opposite. We really appreciate focused criticism as it's easier to action if needed. For example, saying "I don't like it", or "It's ugly" is fine and a completely valid opinion, but it's more helpful to us If you can point to something specific you find harder to do. We've read all the responses in this thread and there are many improvements we want to make — with this update we're in a much better place to make incremental refinements more quickly.

I understand, if I remember correctly there was a user with visual impairments involved in the discussion who found the higher contrast helpful, which makes balancing different accessibility needs tricky. That's why were still open to feedback, we want to make it right for as many people as we can. We can reduce the contrast significantly in the areas we've managed to nail down as problematic while still maintaining the AA WCAG rating. It just may require a bit of back and forth.

You can still get an AAA rating with lower contrast than the one you implemented. So it can't be just the AA rating fueling the decision to have the most extreme high-contrast option.

I came here because I just noticed that I couldn't use the sorting anymore.

For instance, sorting by "Last Updated" doesn't actually sort by last updated. Nothing sorts as it should, it just displays a random order of things.
There's less info visible, there's a lot of space in between every entry. In my opinion, it looks like an off-brand Yu-Gi-Oh game.

I see there's a ton of backlash, followed by staff members dodging complaints, hedging, stonewalling, being passive-aggressive, all the while nudging elbows with their clique of hypernormalized premium members. A lot of the responses test positive for LLM writing, too. You know you are dealing with corporate red herring when someone's aggressively smiling and shaking hands while looking off to the side. "Look how great we look, look how bad all the complainers look, we're the civilized bunch."

Expand  

I wouldn't have come here if sorting actually functioned to the point where it's not just so useless that I might as well manually scroll through a full list of all the mods for one given game and look at all the stats myself. To be clear, that is exactly what I am doing right now - I am literally scrolling through a list of random mods with no other option. Sorting is completely broken.

The decision to create an 'include/exclude' tag selection dropdown menu is nice, though. That's all I can say.

Any ETA when the next update will roll out? Trying to use the current search/filter is very much an unpleasant experience with how it keeps resetting if you want to spend more than 10 minutes looking for stuff. (I know this is being worked on)
