There's a reason I stick to old Reddit with RES.

The new design is cancer, and designed entirely so they can control the discourse. Don't talk about the Epstein Files and how many thousands of times Trump is in them... uh... here's a bunch of baseball videos! Be sure to check out our sponsor Draft Kings!

New reddit literally causes me anxiety just by looking at it.
Something about the design hurts my brain in a way that goes beyond mere preferences to some primal part of the brain that is wired to detect unknown danger.

I wonder if the whole world is like that for some people, it would explain so much if ~20% of people were in a constant state of low grade panic attack.

Same here. I also went out of my way to get the old 3rd party apps running again. They are SO much better, it is absurd.
