If/when old.reddit.com stops working, I will overcome my Reddit addiction once and for all.

The native mobile apps are good which is Reddit’s only saving grace.

It’s so easy to design something for designs sake while ignoring the fundamental reasons people use the site - first and foremost the content, not the site looking visually good or some clever card pattern or other UI concept.

The whole reason Digg got blasted was how it lost information density and jumped on the ‘web 2.0’ bandwagon without improving the user experience.

The new reddit is significantly worse but I think it got redesigned with ad revenue as top priority
