Reddit and promising better features “soon”, name a more iconic duo. Part of the reason everybody uses RES and 3rd party apps is that for the past decade, Reddit kept promising UX improvements and rarely delivered.
- nuclear fusion power
- male birth control
- Metroid Prime 4
- native accessibility features for Reddit
This has been promised for literally years. But it shows how out of touch they are- they think people are closing their subs and leaving over mod tools and if they make the shitty ad infested non accessible official reddit app have mod tools everyone will be happy.
People aren’t leaving because of fucking mod tools. People are leaving because of lack of respect. People are leaving because Reddit said the quiet part out loud- that we are only there to provide them content and ad impressions and what we actually want doesn’t matter one bit to them. That thousands or millions of users expressing anger is “noise” to be ignored.
Tell your users their strong opinions are ‘noise’ and those users will go be noisy elsewhere.
Ready shoot aim, I guess.

Good.news, everyone! It learned something!
First step of a massive back-walk by July.1, or just avoiding the most expensive of class.action suits under ADA?
NOBODY KNOWS! Is this not exciting??
