Reddit keeps testing desktop UI changes ahead of its IPO
Reddit is changing its desktop UI repeatedly ahead of its IPO in March
Ngl, I'm actually getting legit excited for the shit show this will become.
Lemmyverse better get its servers ready because I'm sure there will be an exodus.
I'm mostly excited to gamble on its downfall.
Let it be known that the refugees can go here: old.lemmy.world
old.lemmy.world
Oh my god it looks like such shit. I kinda miss it.
Nah, lemmy developers have been great. Its like what reddit could be.
I've used old.reddit for over 10 years but looking at it now I realize that I just never had a better alternative. The default Lemmy interface is so nice and clean that I'd never even think about switching again.
It had never occurred to me their would be an old lemmy. I am so happy. What a wonderful thing. Its perfect!
As well as old.lemmy.ca (or the other frontends)
Anyone remember when reddit was "pro css" but then silently moved on anyway?
Professionally crappy, shitty site? I don't think they've moved on from that :)
Even in new reddit they had “Custom CSS (coming soon)” in the subreddit settings greyed out for years as if they would have even considered adding it. They just tried to dongle the fish in front of our noses.
They've started spamming my old accounts and emails with reminders that I only have until March 5 to get into their preferred redditor IPO thing. I'm guessing they're either desperate for investors, or they're desperate for numbers to show off at the IPO to say his incredibly much interest there is.
Still no word on what class stock they're offering to redditors, but I fully expect it'll be non-voting class C shares. Fuck spez.
doodoo
It's dying. digg vibes all around.
