The new update is causing the grad to look more like reddit lmfao (lemmygrad.ml)

  • Everything's so smaller now
  • All avatars are a tiny square (but uses their original, circular shape if you go to the page where you can view the avatar fully)
  • "OP" flair like Reddit (also looks like reddit), as opposed to "Creator" flair which felt more original
  • The post links and fediverse icons are now next to the username as opposed to the upvote-downvote-share icon
  • The vaporwave theme makes the "subscribe", "create a post" buttons more rounded... they look just like Reddit's "subscribe", "create a post" buttons!

Just because we're trying to be open-source/fediverse equivalent of Reddit means that we must copy absolutely everything from Reddit, yes? Honestly wish the devs gave you the option to go back to the original, more cozier, comfier UI (when you wanted) than forcing down compact, corporate-like UI onto all of us.

I didn't say that we should copy everything from reddit, just that I like most of these particular changes (though I agree on the "OP" flair change being unnecessary), I find the denser layout a lot more usable on desktop without being quite as compact as old reddit
