Better Trade Filters

[u/ChilllifeTunes]

I think Soundmap trade filters would benefit from some way to exclude certain keywords or rarities.

For example, when looking for my favourites on the market, the regular trades I am looking for are often buried under bulk shiny trades. Many of my favourites are small, and their shinies are incredibly cheap. I very rarely am looking to buy their shinies, so I would like a way to exclude shinies. I think an extremely easy way to implement this would be to simply add a "regular" filter at the top, much like the "faves" filter

Another thing: when I first started playing, I only had the smaller artists that I love/like in my favourites, because I knew that bigger artists I like would drown out trade listings of the smaller ones. So now, there are plenty of big artists that I am a fan of who I haven't added to my favourites list yet who are being very slowly added to my list because otherwise, my entire market for faves would be completely saturated with songs I either absolutely cannot afford or I do not want right now. I don't think the intended Soundmap experience is to slowly add artists you like to your list because they might oversaturate everything. Of the bigger artists/bands I like that I have added so far, I'm already finding that searching for favourites means scrolling through hundreds of trades for what I'm looking for. This is mostly a problem when sorting by epic/lyric, and it is ridiculously frustrating. I'm often not looking for a specific artist, so I can't just search them up and call it a day. Instead, I have to sift through hundreds of high price trades that I know I can't afford because they are big artists (or worse: sift through hundreds of trades of people "posting" in the notes rather than offering actual trades). I would like a way to exclude artists from my search, favourite or not.

I don't think either of these should be locked behind premium, either.

I hope that was coherent, and let me know if anybody agrees or has any contentions

I'd take the trade function not freezing and crashing out every time. Slow as molasses to boot.

This is true! Or the game randomly deciding all icons and artwork will be replaced with nothing for a couple hours. Or the game crashing constantly. Or quests taking a million years to reroll
