I just tried it and it doesn't display the thumbnails of any of the posts. On old reddit you get to see a small inline thumbnail for each post. New reddit's compact mode doesn't show this, so it still gives you less information over all. Also, it's still way slower than old reddit.

Huh. I could have sworn there was a version that looked almost like old, just more tastefully designed and slightly smaller. But I didn’t feel like checking it out after I had this [0] toxic experience within seconds of trying the current state of new reddit.

Boost app on Android makes the experience enjoyable again. As long as the API remains un-kneecapped.

Sync is also great, but I’m mainly a desktop user. I’d just like the improved markup and stuff from new.
