Notice there is only 1 full headline (from /r/NoStupidQuestions) visible, it doesn't even show the full post. There are 3 of those "trending" boxes but only 2 of those even fit their headlines because they are like 3 words long, they cut off anything longer including the description

I originally became addicted to Reddit because of how streamlined it was to skim dozens of headlines and pick from lots of content, seems they have decided content is not something they want to provide anymore :/

Looks like Yahoo! in ca. 2002.

Looks like one of those clickbait content websites that pop up on social media. I guess this is what you get when everything is aimed at ad revenue and short term profit. Next logical step, sell the thing to some corpo while is still relevant.

This is why old.lemmy.world is a godsend.

Don't insult Windows XP by comparing it to this trash.

[-] vox@sopuli.xyz 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

this is the (relatively) new sh.reddit.com ui (which is now the default for logged off users; it's actually much lighter then new reddit and doesn't use much js and barely has any tracking), logging in should grant you access to new.reddit.com; and of course good old old.reddit.com is always there (install RES; hit Shift+X to expand images)

Wow that is worse than i expected

[-] CoderKat@lemm.ee 13 points 1 year ago

Wait, that's the front page? At first I thought it was an individual post page and the complaint was more about all the things surrounding the post. Instead, they take up almost the entire screen to show a single post?

I don't know. I think this new Facebook UI looks about the same as it was before. Oh, this is Reddit? lol

[-] CookieJarObserver@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

What have you done to reddit?

Well, much. But in the end i just left without a trace after 12 years.

[-] Alfuh@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

old.reddit.com still works for me

[-] MystikIncarnate@lemmy.ca 10 points 1 year ago

So many ads. It's like every fourth post is actually an ad.

Yikes.

UI is the smallest of all problem about Reddit right now

[-] madcaesar@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Which is saying a lot given that the UI is atrocious

[-] kvothelu@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

first i thought i watching YouTube

[-] samus12345@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

Eww, I have a plugin to automatically go to old.reddit, so I didn't know they changed it again and made it even worse!

Another to be glad I stopped using reddit.

[-] Blaubarschmann@feddit.de 11 points 1 year ago

Okay, so does anyone wanna talk about the math thingy in the post?

[-] zkfcfbzr@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

They jump from 0.99999... = 1 to 0.99999... = 1 - 1 in the step where they introduce the limit, because the value of the limit they wrote is 1, not the 0 they probably thought it was. So the whole thing is a crapshoot from the start - functionally no different from setting up 1 = 1 - 1, simplifying to 1 = 0, and claiming you broke math

[-] NameOfWhimsy@reddthat.com 9 points 1 year ago

If it started: 0.999... = 1 - lim(1/n) then maybe we can talk, but I have no idea where 0.999... = 1 - lim(1 - 1/n) comes from, that's just incorrect

As someone who used the site for almost as long (don't know the exact length) how is this just now the thing that bothers you? Reddit has been consistently declining in quality for at least 6 years now if not even longer. What year did they stop showing the upvote and downvote count? That was the first in what became a long line of quality downgrades

[-] DacoTaco@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

We used 3th party apps that still had all those features and didnt look like shit hehe

Reminds me of Digg. They turned into a very pretty ghost town.
