I can tell you already that 99.99% of Hacker News commenters are going to say they hate the new design. And it does suck! But we're not the population that Reddit redesigned for.
- collyw 8y agoIts pretty much like any major redesign of Facebooks page back 10 years ago.
- return0 8y agoi do think that we re not far from the average redditor.
- krapp 8y agoGiven how much content gets pasted here from /r/programming and other tech subreddits, and how much passion there is behind HN's distaste for the redesign, I would bet that many, if not most, HN users are redditors.
- exolymph 8y agoThose are a weird minority of subreddits. Look at the front page for a taste of how Reddit is experienced on average.
- pndy 8y agoStill bit away I'd say tho, reddit commenting style leaks out in some topics
- krapp 8y agoWe're the population designing and deploying these JS driven SPA things, so maybe someone should ask how Reddit could have done it right, and why we always seem to get it wrong?
- Crinus 8y ago> we're not the population that Reddit redesigned for. What is the population that Reddit was redesigned for and how does that redesign cater to them?
