The new sidebar UI is way too big and moves the website to the right of the screen


The new sidebar that just affected my main account is way too big. It’s also unable to be closed, so it’s just stuck there taking up too much room on my screen. I would at least like an option to close or open it, like how it’s been before with this:

Please add a way to close the sidebar, or undo the UI change. I don’t like how it also moves all of the games/text to the right of my screen, it makes everything look off.

Expected behavior

I would like to have the sidebar not take up so much room and be able to be closed, and to also not move everything to the right

I have a problem where the sidebar just goes blank after 0.2 seconds of the website opening making the site insanely hard to use

It is possible that your browser extensions are interfering with the new sidebar? If the issue still happens with extensions disabled, please open a new bug report with some more details. Thanks!

Yes, it was an extension. My apologies for the confusion.

Would be great if you guys brought back the old hamburger button to collapse/expand it like he mentioned until the top bar is also revamped, if that’s ever going to happen.

The sidebar got even bigger recently…why? There’s no need for all the empty space here.

This sidebar update just appeared for me, and I really don’t like it. I have extensions that add custom buttons to the sidebar but they no longer appear because the new sidebar overrides my extensions, making it useless. Also it’s unnecessarily large and as the OP states, moves the whole screen to the left. I don’t want the sidebar to be 30% of what I see on the screen. This update is really just unnecessary and ruins my experience on the website. I hope you can talk with the person who designed this to make it better, thanks in advance.

The new UI also lacks features for developers who have private games and haven’t yet filled out the questionnaire; they aren’t visible in the favorites section. I have to click on my profile to look for my favorite recent games.

this is genuinely unusable, 30% of the screen is taken by the group and navigation sidebar :broken_heart:
