I had not cared about it until a few minutes ago, when I read another top post about the girl who got an abortion being outed by non-encrypted messages on Facebook. Since iMessages are encrypted, but sms is not, I could understand iphone users wanting to switch to another platform after realizing their friend is an Android user.

No they are not.

Not an expert in the matter, just do not want to take cold showers.

Yeah…pass…

Apple user here. If they don’t come out with a new generation of iphone mini, I am simply going to never buy another phone again.

I began using reddit in 2017. I never really realized there had been a decline in quality until I recently ended up on some threads from 2017ish. I think some of it had to do with the change from a very desktop-oriented, forum-style page, to a dumbed-down mobile-friendly experience. The emphasis is now heavy on pictures, videos, instant messaging, avatars, online status, shiny award bling, infinite scrolling, etc. Reddit may not have intended it, but I feel like their target age demographic is much lower now. I’m shocked at how many regular users are still in high school or even middle school. I’d guess the kids are the ones repeating the funny jokes en masse. They’re just kids being kids, but it gets old sometimes.

Auto-refresh is irking the life out of me! But I’m sure it and other issues will be addressed as this site takes off more and more :)

I exclusively used old-Reddit, and I’m not in love with the new interface yet, but it’s not bad.
