Reddit's new profile pages and their mobile web app both use react.

  These? https://www.reddit.com/user/spez https://www.reddit.com/user/spez Aren't those just static html pages rendered serverside? Is there a blog post about them or something?

    If they made a technical post about them I haven't seen it, but there was an announcement for them as a feature. I just know that my react-devtools extension and the redux state inspector both lit up when I went on that page.

    That page is using React.

    The new pages like above are React apps. The old pages like below: https://www.reddit.com/user/HeinieKaboobler https://www.reddit.com/user/HeinieKaboobler Are server side rendered. It's not a popular change. Mostly because of people feeling it'd pull focus from subreddits to profiles, but also some complaints about the performance loss and lower density: https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/60p3n1/tldr_today_were_testing_out_a_new_feature_that/ https://www.reddit.com/r/announcements/comments/60p3n1/tldr_...
