New reddit is better than old reddit shit that looks like it’s from 2005, at least for me
In general, old UI means shitty or non-existent password hashing, rather than "reputable".
And I don’t see how you can compare something that has a modern UI with instagram. Is that the only modern UI app you use? I don’t even have instagram.
And so yea I use Memmy for Lemmy cuz the website just has bad ergonomics for mobile. Boo boo Apollo be like TikTok hehe cringe
I mean, seriously…
I mean I have indeed bad tastes and I suck at design so x)
Agree to disagree on the UI, after all it’s personal tastes.
~~There’s no such thing as “closed source” on web pages.~~
[Edit: I was obviously stupid.]
I guess dynamic web pages and PHP don’t exist
Apart from the tracking part, I’m all for modern UI, we just have different tastes :)
Have a good day ❤️
Yeah, while I understand that there was a loss of customisation and that naturally the existing username tended towards people who likes the older style, I personally absolutely hated it to the point that I just couldn't get into Reddit at all until the update. It also doesn't really seem odd to me for a website to update it's UI once in a while (tbh, I'd be turned off by one that doesn't. Even the best UI today is still relatively speaking from the bronze age of UX design. If the best we have today is the best we can do I'll be sorely disappointed.)
