What currently happens on reddit: the user (1) opens reddit (2) reads a page of titles without minimal scrolling, and (3) opens links that interest them. What happens with your design: the user (1) opens reddit and has to click through a directory, (2) has to scroll aggressively to go through content, and (3) is forced to look at everything. I'm not sure this is an improvement. Also, two of the best things about reddit are its content density and assumed intelligence of the user. Where sites like Facebook spend hours picking the right icon at the right size for the laziest of users, reddit shows the relevant links and info about each post as a small row of text. These seem like (good) intentional design choices to me. I get it's fun to design these "alternate interfaces" and I'll state emphatically that there's nothing wrong at all with doing so. reddit just isn't broken in any ways this fixes. |
