1 year agoYep. Instead of developing things the site actually needs, like accessibility features for low vision/blind users, better mod tools for mobile, a better mobile app in general that isn’t horrible and a million other things, they spent all their money and time developing stuff like NFTs (of course), a video player that is barely even usable just to try and look like TikTok, shiny awards and animations to shill out, etc etc.
Yeah, Reddit has 0 interest in being Reddit anymore. They want to be tiktok/Instagram (that’s why the video player is fucking trash, they want it to look like tiktok). The thing I don’t understand is those apps are already much larger than Reddit, why would people from those apps ever come to Reddit? And why would you just completely abandon your loyal userbase?
