Details below!\n\nCommunity Stuff"},{"attributes":{"header":1},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"“Community Stuff” can be found on a tab at the top of the homepage next to “My Stuff” (which includes the content that you’re used to seeing on the homepage). Here’s what you can expect to find on Community Stuff:\nRecent Decks - For those who were sad to see recent decks moved down the homepage, you’re in luck! We’ve moved it back to the top (sort of), but now on Community Stuff instead of My Stuff."},{"attributes":{"list":"bullet"},"insert":"\n"},{"insert":"Trending New Commanders - A list of the most popular new commanders within the last seven days, but only including commanders that have been newly printed within the last 90 days.

All of these we’ll be updating regularly to shine light on some of the more niche or flavorful sections of the site as the seasons call for them.\n\nOne of our goals for this year was to help better foster the community on Archidekt, and we feel this page is a step in the right direction in doing so.

{"ops":[{"insert":"As always thank you for your continued support! Love these updates. I’m constantly trying to plug in Archidekt every single chance I get. It is still the best deck builder/collection tracker I’ve used! \n\nEDIT: Question! For OathBreaker decks, as it seems to be the kid in town, are we going to get official default categories for OathBreaker and Signature spell? \n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"We don't have imminent plans for the Oathbreaker command zone categories. It'd certainly be a nice touch, but functionally doesn't change much for the user so it hasn't moved up the priority list yet. If the format continues to grow and maintain interest though, this will definitely be something we figure out! In the meantime, you can of course adjust the name of the Commander category to Oathbreaker and create a second one toggled onto premier for your Signature Spell (fully acknowledging this is annoying to do in each deck).\n\n(Also, thank you for the kind words, it really means a lot.)\n"}]}

{"ops":[{"insert":"Appreciate the updates. Something I've noticed with bulk-adding to your collection is that card names with commas or apostrophes tend to cause errors, any advice on how to work around that?\n"}]}
