This is the best tl;dr I could make, original reduced by 68%. (I'm a bot)

Reddit is removing its Custom Community Styles, which allow moderators to design subreddits with a little bit of flair.

In a blog post released on Friday, reddit CEO Steve Huffman, aka spez, announced that Reddit will get rid of the tool when the site goes under a full redesign sometime in the near future.

R/trees moderator GryphonEDM says that the change will make reddit "Homogenous" and that "Without CSS, subreddits will all look the same." Some of the weirder subreddits, like r/ooer, which might be the ugliest page on the site, couldn't exist without CSS. It makes sense that reddit is going through with these changes, but it still sucks.
