I fucking hated old.reddit.com lol

I didn't really hate it, but I never got how everyone seemed to love it, it was old and ugly.

I like that it's information dense. Posts don't take up a lot of space, comment chains are easier to track with the boxes, it's more obvious which posts will expand in window and which will go to a new link. I don't care if it's pretty, I find it far more functional.

Simple and worked well with RES.

Tbf, when people say they love old.reddit, they very well could be referring to some of the better-looking themes. A lot of old.reddit subs, for example, use Naut. Some also use Minimaluminiumalism, or Simplit.

Might also be about using RES; a lot of the cool stuff never got ported over to the new UI.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago

I dislike those too lol

[–] [email protected] -2 points 1 year ago

Old, and ugly are 2 very kind words for the outdated garbage it is.

Damn, you might have got hung, drawn and quartered for that comment on reddit ;)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Haha, that's fine. I'm never going back to that shit hole anyways!
