The Reddit redesign hid the sidebar, where many subreddits had a FAQ. Now, only that tiny percentage that uses old.reddit.com will see the FAQ, Wiki and all those other treasure troves of information the community had built up. I suspected – and continue to suspect – that Reddit wants the same questions to appear over and over again, as that seems like the very definition of engagement. I have also seen mods claim that when people post a question, it isn’t necessarily because they couldn’t answer it themselves, but because they’re just seeking interaction with other members of the community. Therefore, old-school net users who refer people to FAQs are cruelly denying them an outlet for socializing.
