It feels nice to see people express themselves with an icon and banner of something they like instead of how homogenous the icons are on Reddit, unless you paid up of course. At least that’s how I feel. Definitely an unexpected pro.
I used old reddit and RIF. I don’t think I ever actually saw someone’s snoo icon thingy. A lot of the new reddit stuff just passed me by.
Interesting perspective. I only joined after the new UI was implemented, so I didn’t even take that into account. What did you see instead, or did Old Reddit just not have icons at all?
Old Reddit didn’t have user icons at all.
Yeah, I much prefer being able to use my own avatar.
Not only do I dislike that little Reddit dood, I don’t like the name of them, I find the paid versions rather clashy and ugly, and it feels a bit annoying.
For sure a nice change of pace I can say.
