▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
【Background】:
The Games page:
on Computer only counts the number of Computer players.
on Mobile only counts the number of Mobile players.
on Tablet only counts the number of Tablet players.

For example, a game might have 2000 players, which 1000 of are Computer players.
On the games tab, the game only has 1000 players. If it showed 2000 players, it would be on the front page.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
【Problem】:
This is a good mechanic for Mobile and Tablet users. It shows which games are most friendly and popular for Mobile and Tablet Roblox.

However, for Computer, if a game is good on mobile/tablet Roblox then it'll be even better (less lag) on computer.

Therefor this filter is unneeded. The filter is also unfair to games that have been made mobile/tablet friendly.
These games should be rewarded with a better spot on the games tab (which would happen by the game having more players showing).
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
【Solution】:
The Roblox developers, which have done far more difficult things and are incredibly skilled, would simply remove this filter.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
【Other】:
"If all games showed the real number wouldn't all games just stay on the same place on the Roblox Games list?"

Not at all.
Example:
A non friendly mobile/tablet game might have 1500 players, of which 1400 are Computer players. This game would appear to have 1400 players. Meanwhile, a mobile/tablet friendly game with 2000 players, of which 1000 are computer players, would only appear to have 1000 players on the Games tab. By removing the filter, this game would be ahead of the other game by showing the real number of 1800.

Developers can make their own analytics script to detect which device their players are using.

They can and they already did. However, that's not what this thread is about.

Yes, this thread is about something that's already scriptable.

Game developers can already script it themselves for their own games.

Do you even know what you're saying? Are you claiming that it's possible for a developer like me to change the scripts for the roblox website? lmao

"Game developers can already script it themselves for their own games."

So game developers can create scripts for their own games that change how the roblox website's games tab counts games' players?

Do you know how useless it would be to only fix this issue for your own browser/computer? If you took the time to read the entire thread, you would see that this idea is aimed for the roblox core scripts, so that it would be changed for everyone.

Fix this issue? There's no issue. Also, if you want it that bad, you can make it yourself.
