My god Reddit is now awarding 2700 points for "what a great comment." I disagree with the characterization that this comment is worth reading. It misses the whole point. More when I have a real keyboard.
You can change it back. It's pretty fucking hideous but they did learn a thing or two from the Digg redesign. I'm more upset by how often I get reddit threads as results from Google searches. I think it's helped me exactly once when I was trying to pirate ebooks. Other than that reddit just seems to fuck up the Google algorithm
Every time I end up back at Reddit it just makes me angrier. The user base there has gone to shit; its a gong show of "the donald" retards and the remnants of the SomethingAwful/tumblr fuckwits with a median mental age of about 13-14. I've been in awe of how the #4 most popular website for the US and Canada can be so, so terrible.
