This is like a serial killer wearing their victim’s face. Good job!

While we're on the subject of UIs, can we get an account option to disable or collapse embedded images/gifs in comments? I want that classic reddit feel of just text and links to images.

[–] 4grams@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

This and the previous comment are officially the hardest I’ve laughed on this platform so far.

Holy christ, there's no going back now, lol. This is BEAUTIFUL.

Is it possible to add infinite scrolling?

Btw, old reddit used to display the exact upvote/downvote counts ("x upvoted, y downvoted") for posts AND comments in the "title" attribute of the total number, visible as a tooltip when hovering the mouse over it. All that "x% upvoted it" for posts and removing the counts entirely for comments was nonsense pushed through by the previous reddit jerk CEO on 2014-06-18 against all community opposition (what is it with reddit and dumping unpopular changes in June?).

If you gonna recreate old reddit, please do not include these later CEO meddlings in it! One of the best features of lemmy is the display of exact counts (which was also a major advertised draw of voat.com and raddle.me before it). Let's keep that in!

[–] Draconic_NEO@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I really hope they add that feature to the frontend. Everyone who's been making apps lately seems to either intentionally or unintentionally be leaving out the ability to see accurate vote count. It's rather annoying but also a bit concerning, I really wish more app developers would utilize that feature of Lemmy to see the vote count accurately.

I made an issue by the way on the GitHub.

[–] bappity@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

you should open an issue about that here https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym

[–] mercano@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

I bet there’s a pretty good overlap between β€œpeople who preferred old.reddit.com” and β€œpeople who left Reddit in disgust.” Thank you.

[–] mindbleach@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

"Removed by mod" comment are still visible on old.lemmy.world.

https://lemmy.world/comment/1687844 - removed by mod

https://old.lemmy.world/comment/1687844 - "Drink bleach."

If you could also kick this person for telling people to kill themselves, that'd be great, thanks. If every last space is going to blithely demand "civility" and prevent us from telling people where to stick it, when they deserve it - moderation needs to be orders of magnitude better, on our behalf. Otherwise it just means "be nice to toxic monsters."

hey @mindbleach@lemmy.world, I banned him for 7 days so he can cool off. I'll also log this bug with the developers of mlmym

Edit: https://github.com/rystaf/mlmym/issues/53

[–] mindbleach@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Cheers on both points.

now that's how a community is supposed to be run

good webdev

pat pat

edit: @nnrx@sh.itjust.works you know, if you really wanted to knock this out of the park... why not add in some features from Reddit Enhancement Suite? I dunno if anyone will ever consider porting RES over to Lemmy, but there were a lot of nice things like drag to zoom that I'll miss. if those features were implemented natively without needing an addon, that'd be super neat.

[–] InfiniteSpaces@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Wow, i hate to admit it but i really missed this, it is awesome thanks so much.

I'm now officially supporting .world on Patreon because of this.

[–] obrenden@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

This reminds me of that old site that made reddit look like Outlook so you can pretend to be working while on reddit. Now I'm pretending to be on reddit. The ol' switcharoo yadda yadda

--found the site for those curious: http://pcottle.github.io/MSOutlookit/ but I think it's kind of broken now?

Haha cool, unlike old.reddit this also looks great on mobile!

[–] kratoz29@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Even when I am not a fan of this old style I can see its charm and I think it works quite great, maybe old should not be the name though? why not classic?

[–] t0m5k1@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Oh man, this is just beautiful.

It's like, what fukddit should've been all along.

[–] axzxc1236@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Don't know if this bug is reported upstream or not.

My default listing is "subscribed", if I go to "Top All" and click next page button, I get "Top Sucscribed, page 2". (my current listing doesn't last)

[–] Buddahriffic@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah this proves that old reddit wasn't peak design, the direction they were taking it in was just a bad one. Probably because it tried to discourage spending time in the comments sections, which IMO was the whole point of the site.

I wonder if they would be profitable if they had just included some non-intrusive text ads every 20 or 30 comments or so. Or add in code to detect when people are talking about a product and adding in an Amazon link to that product or something like that. The whole "ads must look like posts" thing was unnecessarily rigid, in hindsight.

My god. Its full of stars.

[–] mjhagen@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I wonder if RES would work on this?

I feel upset with how bad I want this for every instance. I know that change can be good but I want my old creature comforts of when I was 19 and learning about the front page of the internet, chuck testa and maymays

Ooh! Old Reddit style. Noice!
