Yeah the UI is complete trash.

Some things can be a bit confusing at first and the site definitely has a "low rent" look to it but it's far, FAAAR superior to steamtrades. I barely use steamtrades anymore thx to barter. Adding a game to your tradables or wishlist literally takes a click of a button. With steamtrades you have to manually type it or remove it and if you want to add store links to make it more convenient you have to format it properly and it just takes like 50x longer.

Many trade offers on steamtrades consist of "hey is there something from my trade link you want for so-and-so game"? I don't wanna constantly look through your potentially long list of games. With barter it's synced to your steam wishlist so you just click Match and it instantly lists the games you both have and want from each other.

I thought the same thing initially about creating trades but now it's fine. It's so much better than constantly going back and forth asking and waiting for replies, scrolling back up to find other games if you change your mind.

Barter's not perfect but it's a million times more functional than steamtrades.

Ironically I found it easier to use than Steamtrades and I've always gotten more offers and wishlisted games from barter so I switched lmao.

This was a luke warm take

Lestrades is better but a lot less popular than barter so it's harder to find trades.
