#2That's smaller than I expected...

#3On a side note, really hope reddit's engineering team doesn't kill off their 'old.reddit.com' domain though. That's probably the only thing keeping me from dumping reddit altogether (aside from their API-powered custom reddit apps made by indie devs for Android).

#4Reddit is following the steps of Facebook: copying other's features.
They have a live streaming platform, they added something similar to discord for chats. what's next?

#5That number seems to indicate why they've started to use all the dark patterns for people to create an account. You can no longer see comments other than at the top level. Some subreddits require registration to view. All these things are artifacts of the new design that do not exist on old.reddit.com.
I'm thankful HN is not designing for 'engagement' or MAUs at the UI level.

Probably Stories because that's what anything even remotely "social" has to do right now, apparently.

I use i.Reddit.com, much better

I use Slide for Reddit [0]. Some things don't work in the app like Reddit videos, but I get around that by opening those links in a separate browser. Other than that, I've enjoyed how I've set it up [1]; it's got the link's domain name displayed before clicking the link, and if you're signed in, you can save and vote on posts with one click.
What have you used and enjoyed?

Redditisfun is the only thing that has kept me on there (and I'm still pissed somebody stole my username).
I haven't accessed the desktop site in years, because it defaults to the new reddit.
It smacks of when /. changed their layout; there was a huge to-do and users lost their mind. I haven't been back there in, what, 9 years?
I guess, the moral of this story is, what is the reddit replacement? Because so far I have found nothing that compares.

honestly, i don't know anyone that really uses reddit's chat feature. most communities have their own discord server by now.
