This new layout is terrible, and everyone on this site will tell you just the same thing. It's much harder to find trending memes, harder to navigate overall, and far more generic. But don't take my word for it. Of all the websites to make shitty updates to their format, y'all seem like the one place that might actually listen to user feedback. So please, run a poll on which site layout is better, this or the old one. Whatever you're aiming for with this new format, I promise it's not worth it.

2. This is a byproduct of Apple and Apple iPhones. Ever since the iterations of iPhones many social medias try to implement the same clear white background with overly simplified logos and designs. You’ll be lucky if the site offer you a dark mode. It’s the reason why so many websites are designed for phone user’s first and website second at best, to none at all. Most websites completely forgo user personal design in favor of a collective interface. Literately they want appeal to the silicon valley folks and snobs.
