Nexus Mods caps New Mods view at one per author per day
The limit is framed as an experiment and a stopgap, and other tabs such as All Mods and Trending are unaffected.
Nexus Mods has introduced a daily limit in its New Mods view that shows only one mod per mod author in any 24-hour period, according to Rock Paper Shotgun. The change was announced on the site's Discord server by community manager Phoenix.
Under the new layout, additional works from the same author are grouped behind an expandable text indicator in the New Mods tab. The limit refreshes every twenty-four hours, so authors who publish one mod per day are not affected.
Users who prefer the previous arrangement can toggle off the one-mod-per-modder rule to restore the earlier layout. The All Mods, Updated, Trending, Popular and Surprise tabs are unaffected by the change.
Nexus Mods described the measure as an experiment and a stopgap while more sophisticated tools are developed.
Earlier concerns about upload volume
In an announcement post last week about the site's policy on genAI in mod making, Nexus Mods owner and CEO Victor Folmann said authors uploading numerous mods at once were overwhelming the Recently Added section. In that post, Folmann said the site was trying out limits on mods from one author in the section and putting tighter restrictions on uploads from newly created accounts.
