Holy shit, why do they keep wasting space like that? No one wants to hit the down button ten times to read a sentence. R-slurs.
Uh, give it more whitespace. It needs a cleaner look.
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
This isn't a finished product yet. My guess is that they want to fill some of the wasted space with recommended content and ads. If they didn't waste the space on the left, it wouldn't be as bad. That would still leave space on the right to push personalized recommendations.

Still not as bad as Twitter was, though. Back when 80% of the screen was whitespace and if you dared to click on any of the whitespace it would bring to the profile of the person who wrote the tweet or the front page or some shit.

Looks like they are using real WebComponents to build the UI.
It's not bad... it's still not as readable as old.reddit.com but better than the new one. I like how the videos integrate with the page on /r/combatfootage
The comment page is more dense and the interaction is nice, but the design is far too busy with all of the lines, (+) buttons, arrows, and small icons.
It's also very aggressively hiding deep threaded comments so parent comments get more attention. I had to click "Load more" about 20 times in one thread.

What's with all the tech layoffs lately I don't understand why it just hit suddenly as the economy is still doing well? Was it that Elon showed the investors of the world that these tech companies are really adult day care centres full of bloat and now all the other companies are reacting to pressure from investors?
Jump in the discussion.
No email address required.
Yeah Elon broke the ice or stigma kind of. At the core as I understand it stems from both the recession and backlash from the tech/crypto boom during covid. Companies being shortsighted like doubled their amount of staff thinking it was a perpetual motion machine and now are having backpedal.
It's like that video someone posted earlier whining about Valve for being rich and successful despite a small employee base. This is hilarious to me because they're not laying anyone off in droves and they don't even have fricking managers there lol, in fact, because of the steam deck they're extremely secure with future hardware prospects on top of their gaming bucks.

The remote work sun is setting and they've had three years to figure out which employees have initiative and intelligence. Interest rates, energy costs, everything is rising, but you still need to pay back shareholders aka venture capitol. So you cut 10,000 useless people then use the savings of their salaries to pay dividends, and pretend the tech bubble is still expanding to get more funding.

We're doing drugs. If i wanted to hear “don't do it man” or any other sort of social stigma about wanting to put meth in my butt I would have asked my mom what her thoughts were.
