Need help learning to navigate steam trading card menus /u/yunginsecure Steam on Reddit

I’ve been wanting to craft badges, and I’ve struggled so much with the UI. I’m wondering if there are ways to simplify these tasks.

The friends menu: Is there a way to view ALL the cards a friend has that I don’t? I’ve been going to the badges menu to see which friends have cards I need per game, but it would be so much easier if I could see all the cards I need from one friend specifically and all the cards that friend needs from me. Like filtering out duplicates between us, so we can quickly see what cards to trade for us to both make badges.

Making the trade: Is there a way to bulk select? One of my friends gave me all his cards and he had like 200, and I didn’t know to bulk select so when making the trade offer I selected each card 1 by 1 until I added all the cards.

Bots: Is there anything to reference in terms of bots? I remember using Steam Card Exchange back in the day to exchange cards, and as I’m writing this post I discovered the STCards steam group which seems to have bots and people with all sorts of card offers.

Extensions: I don’t have any browser extensions for steam inventory/marketplace/trading cards, and I’m not sure which ones to use, which ones have relevant features, and where to find resources regarding extensions.
