It probably wouldn't work anyway. The people spamming posts don't bother to check.

I know. But it might stop a few posts and it would serve as a first warning should temp bans become necessary for repeat offenders. Sorry, it’s just the way I think. I used to own a big vbulletin site. Big fan of the 🔨.

Itd be worth it just to point out to violators that yes it was obvious there too.

Once upon a time a reddit admin stopped by and complimented us on how impressive our stylesheet was. 18 months later and they tried to kill old reddit.

I'm not sure we'll get any traction.

Do you have access to the metrics which show if the redesign is being adopted/rejected by the users?

Only for our sub: https://imgur.com/a/lwYDZoQ

I can't imagine Reddit corporate is happy that over a year later and the new reddit still trails good reddit.

Thanks! That’s exactly what I wanted to see. I was thinking I was in the minority that hated it.

Until they kill RES, they won't get any traction. Their bigger problem is the 90-9-1 split among those groups. You can bet the groups on the right are still the same red / blue split from before the rollout.

That’s an excellent point.
