None of this is helped by the fact that Nexus has a near complete monopoly on PC mods in general, with competitors like ModDB not having even close to the same amount of mods or users. I've heard horror stories of Nexus admins abusing their power to silence criticism and generally anyone who speaks against them (which is why I'm choosing to remain anonymous) and favoring paid users when a free user has a run-in with a paid user, rather than listening to both sides and making a fair decision like an admin should. While I dont engage with the community much, I have had conversations with some friends who enjoy modding Skyrim and who engage with the community. Speaking of the staff team, they are corrupt and inept. Its a simple fix that the Nexus staff are too incompetent to implement.

There should be an automatic redirect built into the website (but there isnt) because the mod page ID doesnt change, only the URL does. Due to Nexus changing the format of links, older links wont work if you find them, most commonly on a youtube video (even if the mod is still being updated). Mods I know existing on the website not showing up when I search, having to resort to google to find them. Yes, I do have my password saved both in a text file on my phone and as autofill on my PC's browser. Having to reset my password every time I log in due to the website forgetting it which is cumbersome because the password *has* to be 12 characters long. There's a litany of bugs as well, my own experiences include but are not limited to The UI is arguably not very intuitive to a new user *especially* if you dont google the page for a specific game. It isnt too long, five seconds, but who is to say it wont increase as time goes on? They clearly want more people to pay for their premium plan, which is a problem considering my next point.

First off, they've been gradually introducing restrictions for free users, the most obvious one being a countdown timer to wait for a download to start. It is usable even though there's a low speed cap on downloads and there's plenty of mods to experiment with. I've been using Nexus mods for 5+ years now, and have never paid a dime.
