The Reddit Menace

>tl;dr: reddit is replacing freedom with ads, will they invade us?

Reddit was once irrelevant, then Digg (very popular back then) changed its layout. The whole Digg userbase went to Reddit as a fuck you to the moderation.
Now reddit is changing its design (looks like they're removing custom CSS to force ads on every page).

Is another mass migration impossible these days? Is Reddit too big?
Will people care at all?
If they do, where will they go?

But most of all, is Jow Forums safe?
The layout is very different and arguably more confusing to normies, they won't take the courage to approach this website, right? Some corners of reddit are already imageboard-y, but it looks like they don't care about draconian moderation and censorship, so it's safe to assume a redesign won't change their mind.
R-right?

>implying this places hasn't been invaded already

Can't you just revert back to the old layout?

Jow Forums is long gone, the election did 'us' in.

Nobody will want to come here. They will fuck off to another site eventually.

That's because they're just testing it.
It's about to change for everyone

Jow Forums was never safe

Reddit moved to Jow Forums long ago.

>caring about Reddit
Proof that you're a fucking nigger and a newfaggot. Fuck outta here and go back to that shithole, goddamn faggot.

Same way I'm "caring" about the Syrian war m8

Jesus Christ that's an awful layout.

>If they do, where will they go?

But reddit already arrived here. Just look at Jow Forums.

Remember when Jow Forums used to hate Jews?

they will all become lolicons soon enough

go back to /v/

Wrong. Gamergate did 'us' in.

>The layout is very different and arguably more confusing to normies, they won't take the courage to approach this website
That's because you fucking faggots don't know how to cruise control with it. Since we love spoonfeeding each other in here:
>get an account
>add a bunch of stupid reddit boards
>go push Home
>read the first article at the top of the list
>press the left or right arrows for infinite reading

Ever since they brought this, i've been reading stupid shit for days. I only come back here for the true bants

Yes clearly a hostage

new design looks like 9gag 10 years ago kek

that was all at the same time was it not?
campaign was in full swing by that time

literally nothing wrong with phoneposters
you can't even reliably tell from what kind of device i've posted this very post

>literally nothing wrong with phoneposters

Smartphones, in general, ruined internet culture as a whole.

Phoneposters need to leave.

>I only come back here
Don't

I agree

You need to go back

what XD

most subs had terrible CSS, and the default is terrible

fucking cringe.

Jow Forums was doomed since the gaia raids.

The reddit mobile app is literally the dark pattern gold standard. They must have hired a fuckton of people from pinterest and maybe some ex-CIA psychological experts. There is at least 100 different dialogues to try to get you to DL the mobile app. Terrible site.

Wrong. Hackers on steroids report did "us" in.

How tho? What's wrong with me reading shit on Jow Forums on the way home from work? Social media shit and normies, sure, but that's different to phones.

they ask for feedback, tell them what you think
I just explained in those forms that I don't give a shit for bad design made by a bunch of cheap undergrads with no life.

>literally nothing wrong with phoneposters
yeah that’s why major carriers are rangebanned in places like NYC on certain boards, other boards don’t allow ascii text on phones, etc. because phoneposters totally aren’t a problem.

when has a website or software project ever in the history of computing ever done the following:
>roll out a new UI
>ask for feedback
>users say "This is shit, why the fuck did you change it? do something useful with your time instead of fucking with the UI"
>site/project says "Oh, dear, we had no idea, we'll go back to the old one and not try to force the new design down everyone's throat because we're invested in it and don't want to have to admit that we had a bad idea"

No they won't invade Jow Forums for two reasons
>no moderation to suppress dissent
>no upboats
