i didnt say devs hate users, i said they don't care.

i didnt say devs hate users, i said they don't care. > because reddit wants to be It used to be that devs would add features to please users and apps didn't have an agenda about what they "wanted to be". And what prevented reddit from introducing a "meme feed mode" for subreddits that are full of memes? People seem to have forgotten that they can make incremental changes, not every update needs to be a full rewrite. > new additions, like the search omnibar are, See this isnt even new, windows 7 had a much more compact start menu without ads and with a search bar. They didn't add to that, or improve or that, they literally made it terrible. And my Photos app keeps crashing all the time, it's ridiculous. It didnt use to crash in win7. Another is the old Skype, the new one is still missing features that worked in the old one. But most of all, what's missing is snappiness, not because my computer is slow, but because the new apps use frameworks in which it's impossible to have low latency.
