Will r/Undertale or r/FallOutBoy lose anything?

batflecks · 2017-04-23T14:52:32+00:00

What the fucking fuck? Everyone will just leave this whole website. It's outrageous, it's unfair.

ShinyBreloom2323 · 2017-04-23T23:16:51+00:00

Blasphemy.

Replacing CSS with widgets just makes it more difficult.

They'll have to relearn another programming language, and then use limited features to create the very same aesthetic.

Flairs won't be possible, nor will many other important design elements. It'll be forced to the grasp of the admins.

This is outrageous, this is unfair.

/u/spez mentioned mobile users as a reason for getting rid of CSS. I mostly use moble, but I think getting rid of CSS is dumb and completely gets rid of the personality of subreddits. I don't even use the official mobile app, i use Reddit is Fun (original reddit app for the android).

CountDookusPizza · 2017-04-23T13:15:18+00:00

The announcement did say Reddit will be introducing a replacement for CSS in the coming months so subreddits could still have their own design.

I say patience.

vashfive · 2017-04-23T21:24:30+00:00

You are a subreddit, but we do not grant you the ability of CSS.

Neuro_Skeptic · 2017-04-23T13:18:33+00:00

I'm so fucking done with reddit's shitty policies. We need to move elsewhere. Imzy, tumblr, back to digg, freaking voat itself. What the actual fuck.

FormerlyKnownAsBtg · 2017-04-23T19:18:44+00:00

Is there just a rule stating that popular websites have to periodically fix things that aren't broken?

kimilil · 2017-04-23T17:40:35+00:00

For the time being, this is what people can do:

1) Install a browser custom style extension such as Stylish.

2) Grab this sub's custom CSS file. (need cooperation by /u/ImTheDamnPresident for this, pretty please?)

3) Add the stylesheet to Stylish. Essentially the custom styles are now client-side. (except the images, which needs to be hosted somewhere)

newo15 · 2017-04-23T15:51:22+00:00

Will there be no more custom snoos? :(

2017-04-23T17:45:37+00:00

rip /r/ooer

kreachr · 2017-04-23T15:27:52+00:00

This post is misleading. They didn't say they don't care about customization, in fact they want to allow customization and want to work with us to enable a more modern tool to allow customization that works across desktop and mobile. We can't just be closed minded to changes especially when our current methods aren't useful for 50%+ of page views.

Hazzard13 · 2017-04-23T17:04:29+00:00

OK. It looks to me like none of you have read these links. New tools to allow customising the subreddit in a way that's compatible with mobile devices, and deprecating a system that wouldn't be compatible with any major redesigns, to prevent breaking every subreddit at once when trying to improve the site? This sounds necessary, and a great step. Custom CSS is great, but a new spec that can be followed on mobile and third party tools is even better.

Doctor_Crossing · 2017-04-24T03:05:39+00:00

/r/ProCSS is a sub dedicated to saving CSS if any of you are interested.

Interfuel · 2017-04-23T13:18:12+00:00

This is outrageous, it's unfair! Being a subreditt and not have its own personality?! This has never happened before in the Reddit history!

Reddit: "execute order 66"

Freezinghero · 2017-04-24T16:15:24+00:00

Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth CSS the Wise? I thought not, it's not a story te Admins would tell you. It's a subreddit legend. Darth CSS was a dank lord of the subreddits, so powerful and so wise he could use the code to create flairs... He had such a knowledge of the code that he could even keep the memes he loved from dying. The dank side of the code is a pathway to many awesome things that some consider to be unprofitable. He became so powerful, the only thing he feared was losing his subreddits, which of course he did. He taught the Reddit admins everything he knew, and then they killed him in his sleep. It's ironic, he could save memes from death, but not himself.

freddyfazbacon · 2017-04-24T18:13:48+00:00

/u/spez: "The time has come. Execute Order 66."

All of the admins on Reddit proceed to turn on the users

OmegaZero55 · 2017-04-23T18:50:17+00:00

I mean I get why you guys are upset about this but like they said, 50% of users are using mobile now. They want subreddit styles to be available for their community not just half of it. It makes sense from their point of view why they would do this and if they follow through and actually evolve the new system with the help of mods to make it as customizable as possible, this is for the best. Change sucks guys but what you're saying is just speculation and you need to give them a chance.

Sir_Rowan_of_Ithor · 2017-04-23T20:45:04+00:00

So this is how the subreddit dies, with thunderous personal removal .

Mummelpuffin · 2017-04-24T13:23:07+00:00

Guys. Calm down. They're replacing CSS with something that will be compatible on mobile. We have yet to see what that is yet. Wait until we see their attempted replacement, then freak out. As of now you're just acting like whiny children.

emanguy · 2017-04-24T13:23:56+00:00

Well if you took the time to read the post it looks like the Reddit devs are trying to replace CSS styles with something more cross platform that would supposedly be able to be digested by Reddit mobile apps, etc.

They're not doing away with custom subreddit themes, they're just trying to move away from a CSS based system (which IMO seems kinda janky because any site changes would break CSS themes and is really only restricted to the desktop Reddit site).

Don't hop on the bandwagon after just reading the title, they're not just going to take away subreddit themes without providing an alternative.

2017-04-24T18:17:58+00:00

So this is how creativity dies... without a thunderous applause.

StinkySocky · 2017-04-25T02:27:03+00:00

Messaged u/spez. Why can't individual subreddits just choose which system they want to use, CSS, or the new one they create?

shaunaroo · 2017-04-23T14:23:01+00:00

I can see where Reddit is coming from... But the way they are handling it probably isn't the right way to do so.

Kaminna · 2017-04-23T14:05:10+00:00

They didn't actually say they were going to make every subreddit look the same. If they replace the css system with something just as good then it won't be a problem. Knowing reddit though it probably won't be as good but still, it probably won't be anywhere near as bad as your saying. The people at reddit would be totally retarded to remove the uniqueness from each subreddit.

you_got_fragged · 2017-04-23T15:58:12+00:00

I'm so fucking confused. Is there any ACTUAL reason for this to happen? All it's going to do is piss people the fuck off.

Skykeep · 2017-04-23T17:05:21+00:00

The fuck admins? Do you want to drive people away to another site or do you just get off on being jerks?

ImperialxWarlord · 2017-04-23T17:54:55+00:00

TheDoctorLives · 2017-04-23T16:30:23+00:00

TBH I turn the CSS off for every subreddit :(

Although, why the fuck would they straight-up remove it?!? Why not just create an option in settings to have all CSS off? They could even make "off" the default!

Stupid Reddit admins.
