I don't get the popularity of the "mobile first" paradigm. I get it as a cost saving measure, but when you try and make UX fit mobile and desktop both will be worse off. > bastion of independent thought was never a thing, nor is it possible for reddit-type platforms. The mechanics of voting and karma organize content as groupthink, and the divisions of subreddits structure grouphink by type of content with mods that enforce their vision of the type. There is very little you can do for independent thought in this content if mods aren't actively trying for that (and they never did). What you get is content decided by the average person interested in some field, with added selections of moderation. This can be good for a few things but thought or indepth conversations aren't one of those.
