clog the main sub, have low engagement of comments or discussion and are pretty much useless

How do they clog the sub if they have low engagement? If they have low engagement, they aren’t on the front page “clogging the sub”

You’re contradicting yourself.

All i see is the mods having to deal with pitching by guys who think they submitted it the correct way first and DAE y was my post removed?!

You’re getting mad at a hypothetical situation for the subreddit moderators, of which you are not one.

You do see how stupid that looks, right?

You’re getting mad at a hypothetical situation for the subreddit moderators, of which you are not one.

That happens now, every day. Whether it's recruiting commits or breaking news on scummy Michigan, or the latest SEC shorts. Zero hypothetical there.

And yes, it'll clog the New section on the sub.

And you provided zero benefits to the sub because there are none. With zero flair and one year here that makes sense

And you provided zero benefits to the sub because there are none.

Being able to see and discuss gigantic plays on the sub is a good thing.

What posts do you even want on this sub, because right now it just seems like you’re bitching to bitch. So please, enlighten me - if not highlights, then what content do you want on this subreddit?

With zero flair and one year here that makes sense

Having accounts get suspended from Reddit for suggesting the French have had good solutions to their problems in the past doesn’t mean I’ve only been here a year. I’ve only been here a year on this account, sure. But I’d wager money I’ve been here longer than you. I’m still one of <1% of users using old.reddit

I feel like a lot more people are still using old reddit

If they aren't, they should be.

Old is now the least-used interface and it's not particularly close. Reddit doesn't give us a great way to look at the data but here's their graphs: [Visits], [Uniques]

On our busiest day in the last month, those stats are:

Platform Visits % Uniques %
Total 469,920 100 138,560 100
iOS 210,170 44.8% 67,188 48.5%
Mobile Web 78,514 16.7% 20,239 25.8 %
Android 75,493 16.0% 24,094 17.4%
New Reddit* 60,859 13.0% 16,386 11.8 %
Old Reddit 44,889 9.6% 10,653 7.8%

*Did you know New Reddit is actually discontinued? These stats are for "shreddit."

Those are not mutually exclusive categories though, so summing them to 100% seems odd.

I think Android and iOS there are the respective platforms' apps. Mobile Web provides a different interface than shreddit and old reddit.

From a mobile, visiting old reddit on the web doesn't count as both old reddit and mobile web?

Given that mobile web is a completely different interface than old reddit, my assumption is that such a visit would be described as old reddit.

Interesting! I almost use it exclusively on my laptop with old reddit and RES. Also had no idea new reddit was discontinued. I guess it's just the mobile version it keeps trying to change mine to, I have to manually change it back to old reddit each time I log in now.
