Happened to me a few days ago, and I just can’t believe how bad this redesign is!!
It’s hard to comprehend what goes into the heads of that dev team, but they basically ruined everything nice about the platform. The API changes were pretty much a fatal shot already, but this new redesign seems to be what tipped the scales for me, and hopefully many more.
It’s a great time to switch to Lemmy, and I think I’m going to make the effort to stick around and abandon the habit of opening reddit multiple times per day.
Do you think forcing this re-design will bring more people here? I’m hoping for that. Reddit betrayed us and I can’t find it me to keep forgiving them for every horrible, anti-user decision.
I noticed in some moderator subreddit, that it is planned to kill new.reddit.com as well. Old will likely stay for longer, but new is what I got used to, and if they take it down I won’t bother getting used to the newer, garbage UX.
whaat? They changed like nothing at all. Where is the redesign? The current UI is garbage, but the new one is equally as bad
On Firefox mobile when I click in to a post now the comment dialog has like 10 characters width max.
If I scroll down at all in a nested chain it quickly goes to 1 character lol
If I refresh then it somewhat goes back to normal.
I believe new.reddit is the design they’ve had for a while, and sh.reddit is the redesign. I’m not at my computer though, so I can’t verify
