Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.
This is the social network’s second update rollout for the logged-out experience this year. In March, it made the pages screen reader friendly along with making the webpages cleaner.
First, no it didn't. Second, how much if this is copied and pasted from their PR team? Lastly, what is this 80 Accessibility score on the new homepage.
Both Reddit and Techcrunch need to do better.
Also >4s LCP, lol performance
80 accessibility score
ok, is r/blind still moderated solely by sighted people?
If this post from @[email protected] 8 days ago is still up to date, I would assume that it has to be. Unless they've found someone who has enough vision to get around the AT issues they list in there.
So, probably?
80 Accessibility score on the new homepage.
It's worth pointing out that score of 80/100 is the result of an automated scan, which currently can catch no more than 40% of all potential accessibility issues. The remaining 60% (it's likely higher than this btw) can only be detected manually using a screen reader and keyboard only (for keyboard accessibility, as some people are able to use only the keyboard). So backing up what you said, the accessibility problem with Reddit is much worse than is being reported.
Both Reddit and Techcrunch need to do better.
They do, and the way they continue to mistreat their disabled users, even after meeting with them to discuss these issues, indicates they don't care.
They do, and the way they continue to mistreat their ~~disabled~~ users, even after meeting with them to discuss these issues, indicates they don't care.
It's been clear for a while now that they just don't care about their users in general.
I'd go back if they redesign it good.
Just joking fuck you u/spez
I would go back if the restore api access for this party apps, so we don't have to look at the sorry excuse of layout on their website.
Nah bro. They would just restrict the APIs again after 3 months or so when they think people forgot.
Yep, I'm gone gone. It only took a day and a couple of years of bad experiences to break the addiction, there's a slim chance of going back to that after looking for so long for a replacement.
I would need: Spez out, roll back of 3rd party and other malicious updates, cancel the IPO.
In other words, I’m making Lemmy/Kbin my home now.
Using the official Android app is painful. I uninstalled it right away as it was so frustrating to use, but using old.reddit.com on mobile is even *more *frustrating. I'd like to drop Reddit entirely but there's a few subreddits that I enjoy.
You'd go back to reddit while spez is still in charge? 😱
If my biggest issue is resolved, then yes. I don't have problem with stupid people, just with stupid decisions.
Ah I see. I view spez as not stupid but terminally selfish (obviously not mutually exclusive tho) so I have different priorities. Thanks for explaining! :)
[x] Doubt
I mean there may be improvements, but I really doubt it's their main goal at this point.
Well, seeing as how it no longer lets me log into the site on mobile- it says ‘invalid username or password,’ even though the exact same username and password works on their shitty app- I guess they’d have to make the logged-out experience work better.
old.reddit.com
Fuck Spez, haven't been back since Apollo died.
10 hours a week to less than 5 minutes. 🖕Reddit
I've gone back a few times since boost died, but that's mostly because Google search sucks without adding "Reddit" to a lot of my search queries.
The enshittification deepens.
The mobile site, however, still shows an annoying popup asking users if they want to open a post in the app, as many users pointed out under the announcement post.
So the page looks prettier while harassing you to download the ad and tracker infested app? That's EXACTLY the improvement everybody was waiting for!
Old reddit is always available, well until Spez decides to delete that for whatever reason
But he promised! /s
This is available for everyone since a long time: https://sh.reddit.com/
lmao, how can they make a website so slow, this is dedication
