Better UI than it has now.
- teraflop 6y agoThey haven't yet gotten rid of https://old.reddit.com/ https://old.reddit.com/, as much as they seem to want to.
- Jtsummers 6y agoAnd the day they do will be the last day I (deliberately) visit that site. The new UI is just so non-functional for me. Some quality-of-life improvements (I think there are some improvements in the markdown handling in comments), but beyond that the old one is just faster to load and much easier to use.
- Bluecobra 6y agoFunnily enough, I used to be a big Digg user and what drove me to Reddit was when they redesigned everything.
- Jtsummers 6y agoI wasn’t big on Digg, but I was moderately active. And I switched at the same time. This pattern plays out over and over. At least Reddit has left old.reddit up.
- beervirus 6y agoOnly a matter of time.
- nvr219 6y agoThe best UI for Reddit is not made by Reddit. It's Apollo.
- dn3500 6y agoOriginal reddit shows me 12 threads "above the fold" (without scrolling). Current old.reddit shows me 8. New reddit shows me 3. The extra space is taken up by useless garbage like "give award", "share", and "save", operations that I'm not going to want until I've actually clicked through to the thread. I don't see how that's progress.
