They are deliberately not providing the tabular list, categorization, and other features that most people would find useful. Most likely reason is, it would quickly reveal to broader audience how much content they really have and also how quickly they disappear.

I see this all over the internet and apps. What used to be standard customization options are becoming rare. How can a company A/B test something if users are running hundreds of different customized versions of an interface? Better to keep things as standardized as possible to ensure the desired experience and facilitate fine-tuning.
