- Everything’s so smaller now
- All avatars are a tiny square (but uses their original, circular shape if you go to the page where you can view the avatar fully)
- “OP” flair like Reddit (also looks like reddit), as opposed to “Creator” flair which felt more original
- The post links and fediverse icons are now next to the username as opposed to the upvote-downvote-share icon
- The vaporwave theme makes the “subscribe”, “create a post” buttons more rounded… they look just like Reddit’s “subscribe”, “create a post” buttons!
Me tryna read in the new update:
Unpopular opinion: I like these changes
I miss darkly-red actually having red bits. Until it’s back I guess I can suffer in i386 hell.
Maybe I’ve been conditioned by years of YouTube shedding it’s skin, but I don’t have strong feelings about this one way or another.
just use i386 theme
- opposes roundrect worship
- nice color scheme
- doesn’t distort ascii art
i also like how yall made the metadata more compact :) i was kinda being annoying in that rantpost, thx for adding themes back
I appreciate all the work but yes, this is truly awful and unusable. My eyes are straining from how small things are. Text should be bigger, should fill more of the page, etc.
Even if you’re going for that awful new mobile friendly layout all sites like wikipedia, etc are foisting these days where all content is shoved into the center in a square as if we still live in a 4:3 aspect CRT world, the text, icons, preview images, etc needs em-biggifying (though a reasonable amount, new reddit for example goes too far in the other direction).
Yeah tell me about it, this place looked way cozier and comfier with bigger texts from before. People here are complaining about big texts like scrolling a little more below’s gonna cost them half their life. Jesus Christ.

I apologize, I thought you meant the current design was accessibility friendly. 🙇♀️

I don’t really understand all the complaints about the text size, it seems about in line with most other sites now instead of being oddly larger
I also really appreciate there being a bit less padding on the posts because barely any posts could fit in a single screen before, it feels a lot more sensible now
Using more width now is also really nice, it was kinda silly how small it crunched down even on relatively small monitors
Just because we’re trying to be open-source/fediverse equivalent of Reddit means that we must copy absolutely everything from Reddit, yes? Honestly wish the devs gave you the option to go back to the original, more cozier, comfier UI (when you wanted) than forcing down compact, corporate-like UI onto all of us.
Why’d they change it, it was fine as it was
I want old version back :(
Now now, conservative=)
