More friendly, less usable

Yeah I'm hugely frustrated by their recent updates that hide / obfuscate the filters, which is basically the main way you want to use the site. I'm pretty sure it's yet another casualty of optimising for phone normies :(

I agree! The filters made be go to the site, and I don't even live in any of the markets they serve! (Though I do visit, and sometimes buy tings based on what I've found through the site).

i just went back to check (i've already been there today) and there's an option "always show filters" in the upper right corner.

Good to know, thanks. I was looking for something like that but couldn't find it last time, maybe it's new?

Still makes about as much sense to me as Google adding a "always show search box" option that defaults to off :D

Hm, I only miss one thing, sorting by price with shipping cost. Can’t see anything else that was removed, just changed.

Not sure if that's missing on the international site, but if you select "inkl. Versand" in the filter box then the sort includes shipping.

still the best filters, i think. You can filter stuff so deeply, its crazy.
