I stopped criticizing redesigns because i usually get over it, but the Reddit one makes the site at least 8x slower for me.


That’s been my complaint. The old server side rendered site was really fast to load. Ever since the first redesign a few years back it’s been really slow.


Here’s half the page you requested, and some other ‘related’ crap.


Same here. I doN't share msot people's outrage when it coems to redesigns, but this one only seems to have downsides.

Imagine redesigning Reddit with simple HTML, CSS and only the most necessary sprinkles of JavaScript. In my opinion it's clearly a document-based website that doesn't need to pretend being a one-page-app.
