Problem

The 'used by' section at the bottom of each mod page works great if there are 6 or fewer dependents. Once there are more than that, though, one is required to find the sidebar and know that they should click on the 'provides' link to see the rest. Plus, if there are a lot of comments, going from the used by section to that button takes a decent amount of scrolling (see i3's page for an example)

Solutions

If the mod has 7 or more dependents, a button should appear somewhere in the 'used by' section that is the same link as the 'provides' button, but is labeled more clearly, along the lines of 'see more'. This wouldn't replace the 'provides' button, but just adds a bit of UX to those who want to know all the places a certain mod is used.

Alternatives

There could also be a scrollable container to display all dependencies at once, right on the mod page. I assume this was limited to 6 for a reason, though.

Additional context

Currently even the most popular mods seem to, at an uninformed glance, appear in only 6 other projects.
