QoL Suggestion: Auto-Deposit Inventory to Stash via Affinities (Console Focus)

Current Issue: On PS5 Pro, depositing loot to Stash tabs requires manually opening each tab and confirming with controller — extremely tedious late-game. PC has Ctrl+Click convenience, but console players lack this entirely.

Proposed Solution: Add "Auto-Deposit" button in Stash UI (or controller button) that automatically sorts and sends inventory items to their assigned Affinity/filtered tabs. Unmatched items stay in inventory.

Benefits: Speeds up gameplay, eliminates controller micromanagement, pure QoL with no balance impact. Essential for PS5/PS4 players where tab navigation is much slower than PC mouse/keyboard.

Example: Like existing inventory auto-sort, extended to Stash with filter support.

I'm torn here, it does change the balance to have part of the game automated for you. Inventory management is part of time management and is part of the games' puzzle.

So I am against it for those reasons. But at the same time, GGG says they want to have a strong entry into the Console market and make their game properly Console-friendly, and you can't be Console-friendly w/ clunky and tedious systems that PC-Master-Race don't ever have to think about.

I don't know the solution, because even if it's applied across the board, PC and Console, it's still automating part of the game; and when I bought in at version 0.1, it wasn't for a cookie clicker experience.

This would make PoE2 more console friendly.
