      But only in comparison to the good apps. If we never had the others we’d never know and Reddit might never have gotten big. Those apps drove a much higher rate of engagement because of well they were made. It’s like now I couldn’t even engage at the same rate if I tried. And I’m only talking about viewing posts, commenting, and voting. I can’t imagine how the changes are for mods.

        Yes, we would know. Because reddit itself used to look good before they destroyed the UI. Take a look at old.reddit.com to see. A lot of these apps were mostly trying to recapture that, but with more user customization.
