They keep suspending me despite me appealing several times. It doesn't help that I tried creating new accounts each time which is against their rules (evading), but that was only because my initial appeal received no response!
But they let bots roam freely on their land.
It's annoying because I have communities I really like there like the ufc or mma Subreddits.
Ah, this is completely off topic. Ignore me.
Edit: I wonder what percentage of Reddit users use Old reddit. I suspect a great deal of Hacker News users use old reddit.
This will be true for me. The new layout is just so, so bad. It's hard to believe they found a way to make a worse UI given how many people found the old one difficult.
Quora has a similarly baffling UI. You're reading one thread trying to find a useful response and it mixes in random answers to other threads.
Who the hell thinks this is a good idea?
The only thing I can figure out is some "expert" somewhere has data that says there's a small pickup of people coming in from SEO clicking on other random links.
But you would have to be such a myopic idiot to think that deliberately confusing users to inflate engagement is a reasonable long term brand strategy.
Quora's UI is just trash. It's hard to realize the answer you are reading is not an answer to the question you have opened and that's an unbelievably stupid thing to get wrong in a website that is all about questions.
Yea, I noticed. I use Reddit on read mode only.

Tactics to wean more people off the old one? Or just a regular outage?
We'll find out.

Seems to be back up now
this better not be.. the happening.
I hope so too! The day we all spoke about. Lol.

Plus on the new layout you're forced to use the mobile app now.
I use firefox and YesterdayForOldReddit for mobile browsing and it's basically the old.reddit experience on mobile.
Same. That's part of the appeal of this site. It looks like old reddit.
Never forget what Reddit did to the Apollo app
