You cannot wait on round trips to the server for user interactions
Old Reddit still works fine, and I’d argue better than new front end heavy Reddit. You are right it may be for the benefit developers, but Reddit isn’t complicated enough that a heavy front end provides much benefit to the users.
- BizarreByte 4y agoOld Reddit is significantly faster than new Reddit and I found it far nicer to use, but people in general didn’t like the “old, clunky” UI. Old Reddit was much maligned for how how it looked compared to modern sites.
- smolder 4y ago> Old Reddit was much maligned for how how it looked compared to modern sites. By young people, probably. Me and my friends that I know still use it prefer old.
- Winsaucerer 4y agoI do much prefer the look of new reddit, but the performance is painful. I don't see why you couldn't have a nicer looking UI, but with the performance of old reddit.
