Could you provide the mock up of your ideal library tab and game count details (screenshot and/or text)?
games + apps + videos
I don't believe that videos or movies grant +1.
I think +1 and +0 DLCs perhaps should be listed separately. I split it into ⚙️ DLC and DLC, but the new count (4047) still not close to the DLC count on your library (2958). It difficult to stay up-to-date with games; with DLC, this may not be feasible.
⚙️ and ⎚ are not separate sets You're right. It doesn't seem useful to include Steam banned with Steam limited. I excluded Steam banned when counting ⚙️. The overlap looked to be 516 games for your library.
Steam games
is the Games Owned count from Steam profile. Therefore, the most applicable link would be https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197963550511
The closest Barter link to that would be https://barter.vg/u/427/l/f/?tag=531
I believe this was solved in an earlier layout change.
What problem does this feature address?
The user expectation is that ⚙️ is the +0 games count. The alt text description even literally says it's games. IMO it should be games + apps
+ videos, since IIRC those contribute to Games Count™. Tools and Configs and such do not contribute to games I believe. Correct me.The DLC count already contains +0 DLCs. I think +1 and +0 DLCs perhaps should be listed separately. Currently it looks like it would show only +1 DLCs, but that's not the case. And/or it's non-store DLC items. My Barter DLC count is almost twice of my profile DLC count. I guess we shouldn't treat +0 store listed DLC the same as non-store DLCs, so to be honest I have no idea what to do here – input?
Similarly, ⚙️ and ⎚ are not separate sets but have common items. The whole thing is a big Venn diagram, but the "+" might imply that it's not. At least to me it has that implication. Discuss (below)!
"Steam games" could be a clickable link to non-DLC tagged SteamPlus1? https://github.com/bartervg/barter.vg/issues/231 willing that now works. [IDK if we have tools and configs and crapware like advert app IDs tagged as +1. Investigate? We also have playtests tagged as SteamPlus1, and withholding the conversation that they should be excised from Barter altogether, they definitely don't +1 anything, or do they?]
Describe a solution
Split ⚙️ or make it non-DLC-only.
Refactor
alt text 😊Add new link(s), if easy.
Have a lengthy design by committee session in here about the other topics.
Enjoy the bonus below.

We could have a big, discriminatory conversation about having a total number of all Steam items connected to an account shown as 'Library'. The Library number is not Steam Library but the sum of all libraries, which might be counter-intuitive on a predominantly-Steam trading site.
Maybe alt text for the library number could have Steam +1 total, Steam everything-standalone total, and Steam Barter items total (= packages + DLCs + tools + configs + fake crap added to the previous one). Having an alt text means I would be able to see this information without waiting a good while to load an entire library. OTOH if that's not cached conveniently. displaying this on every user-related page would add humongous server load. Tread with care! Do I need to make an extra issue for this feature request?
