    Personal limitation? I mean, the UI is worse. Bloated, confusing, and doesn’t look any better. It has extra ads that look both like posts and comments. Fuck that.

      Beyond that, it also just runs way worse; new.reddit takes at least twice as long to load a page than old.reddit. And when your entire business model is based on exploiting my stunted attention span to trick me into reading advertisements, you can’t give me that extra two and a half seconds to realize maybe I don’t give a shit about half the garbage I just mindlessly scrolled through, or else I’m gonna just go, like, fly a kite or something. And I don’t wanna do that, where do you even get a kite?

      And hell, it’s entirely possible this rate limit isn’t just restricted to old.reddit, but nobody’s noticed yet because new.reddit is too slow to make 100 requests in a measly 10 minutes.

        I found 1 community that might be able to answer that question, but the last post on there was a year ago: [email protected]

      Why won’t you do your part to maximize shareholder value?

      I don’t think you understood my comment. Sorry I wasn’t clearer

      I wasn’t referencing the UI at all. I was specifically referring to the feeling of revulsion. I personally get that feeling whenever windows rolls out something new

      I’m definitely not shilling for the new UI or all the fuckin ads, that’s for sure. lol

        I see, I am sorry for argumenting then.

        I too feel revulsion when a new Win update rolls out, tho.
