Hacker News Reader

IF the old interface is replaced by the horrific one that shows like 5 articles I will never visit again.

Maybe we’re just not the target audience for reddit anymore. I’ve spoken to spoken to zoomers who use reddit and their response is that the “new UI” is all they’ve used and they like it because everything is embedded in the same page and scrolls like their twitter/facebook/instagram feed.

That's probably the case.

I only use Reddit from behind Tor, on desktop, so I open a bunch of tabs to amortize the load time, then read them in sequence and close each one as I read it.

If you have fast Internet and a short attention span, and faith in your web browser's back button, maybe that doesn't make sense.

You can configure the view to "classic" or "compact", and it shows the same number or more posts than the old design.
