So i'm glad like all of you for the fact we got steamgifts back, but overall the usability of the v2 is much worse for me.
No dark theme yet
No Grid view for giveaways
No thanks filter
No option to filter out a game from giveaways
No url shortcut in the editor (i hate the tags)
No options to make bold text and other formats in the editor
No longer the option for showing newer posts on top
No highlighted new posts
No endless Scrolling
Etc. Etc.

I know most of those werent officially built in v1 but instead provided by addons/plugins/scripts which were used by many people.
But I got used to those little features and without them the steamgifts experience is just worse.
What do you think?

Which one do you prefer?

V1
V2

SGv2+ hopefully will release soon and solve most of your problems.

Plus, this new site has only been up for less than 24 hours, so give it some time :P

Is this confirmed?
I thought the creator of sg+ is long gone.
I dont mind waiting some time as long as those features will come back. And why do we still need a seperate addon?
Sg+ should have been implemented into the site.

It was in development during beta, so it should hopefully pop up at some point.

Is it just me or our contributions did not carry over? I gave away 88 games (or around there). Is that info gone or ?

CG, or 1 of the mods/admins said that some features etc is disabled, so they can be optimized.

No option to filter out a game from giveaways

Click the eye icon next to the giveaway name on the homepage to filter individual games, or use the account page for more options.

No url shortcut in the editor (i hate the tags)

Links are automatically formatted now, no tags or markup required.

Most of the other changes were left out since they're a matter of individual preference. They'll likely be included in a user add-on, or we'll officially implement options that are frequently requested.

Thanks for pointing this out :)
But if you want a clicky with different text you still need tags, also pictures and text formatting.
So i think adding those features to the editor would be appreciated by many people.

Jeez dude, give the guys time to create their website. The features that should/shouldn't be here is ONLY up to them to decide. No one is paying them for all their hard work so please don't feel so entitled as to ask for all the things YOU want... and especially when they've already said they are working on some of those things. :s

Oh im not entitled. If all those features would be gone for good it would be sad but nothing else. I just pointed out I miss them and liked v1 more because it had them.

Thats what I wrote in the op, doesnt change the fact I liked them and miss them now.
Also doesnt change the fact I like v1 more than v2 because of them.

I miss my contributions. I literally lost upwards of $1000 worth of giveaways with this level decimal crap.

If anything you actually gained contribution. Bundle games may not contribute to the new level system but they are included in your displayed contribution amount now.

So far I prefer v2 just because it's 100 times faster and it has the wishlist feature

I miss a lot of the things you list, and also (probably most of all) the reply notification, but SG2 is still developing, and the feel and speed of the site are much improved.

Hopefully CG will implement all of that good stuff as things settle down :)
