But if the new update is an improvement of gameplay it can’t be too late an addition.

I have a few weeks during which I’m very into the game, and then nothing for a couple of months or more. For instance the last time I played was in January (there’s no predicting when next time will be).
It depends how the feature turns out. For instance if I switch from one character of the household to the other, will the categories reset ? Can I “save” a different category per Sim (the one who plants stuff would have a sort by gardening quality setting, the one who runs the shop will have a sort by price setting…) ? That sort of thing. But for now, it seems a bit insufficient to me. Still looks like it involves a lot of scrolling, which is the original sin of TS4 inventories.

But other people as individuals cannot censor each other because we can’t actually just go “well now it’s illegal and/or prohibited for you to do this” with any authority which is an inherent part of censorship.

So when people say “treat other human beings with respect even when you are criticising what they have produced” that’s not censorship, that’s them advocating for healthy, productive discourse as individuals.

It’s about being polite and respectful in the way one words their feedback or criticism. Being a paying customer still doesn’t entitle one to ‘verbally attack/abuse’, so to speak, the people who make make the product.

Also, constructive criticism IS criticism. Specifically it is criticism with the aim of improving what is being criticised and is intended to be useful. Hence “constructive”. This is directly opposed to criticism that is just complaining about something, which can be valid but is rarely useful, and will be “filtered out of the cesspool”.

That much should just be common sense in 2020. If you really need feedback, you hire someone else to read the cesspool for you.
As for the popular idea of constructive criticism(aka not-criticism) being valid speech, while actual criticism is inexcusable; we have a word for that kind of thinking, it’s called censorship.
Healthy things survive antagonism, unhealthy things do not, that’s just the way this reality operates.

I like that I can have a big garden and have them sorted away from homework or books now. I do wish they would make separate inventories for the bookshelves so my kids rooms won’t have Reel her in and other nonsense items in them. I have a mod for it but I wish it was an in game feature.

Constructive criticism is what you are talking about and I completely agree that its needed. But some of the people on here are very toxic and its depressing to see.
