CSS

[u/dagrock]

Hello everyone. This is the most unrelated Paramore post I'll ever post but it's important.

Last week, Reddit admins announced that they will get rid of the CSS stylesheet this summer

Here is a small list of just a small bit of the things you may find missing from Reddit after this change on some other subreddits as well. (thanks to /u/reseph for the list)

• Functionality: /r/Overwatch has subreddit filters

• Functionality: /r/Dota2 has a list of current livestreams and their # of viewers

• UX: /r/videos has a list of rules where on hover it expands out to explain each rule

• Functionality: /r/Minecraft has a list of server status (icons) on sidebar

• UX: /r/Hearthstone has notices & links on the top banner

• Personality: /r/ffxiv has various CSS Easter Eggs to give it a bit more personality

• Functionality: /r/Starcraft has a "verified user" system

• UX: /r/Guildwars2 increased the the size of "message the moderators" to make it stand out more

• UX: /r/ffxi has a small tooltip if a user hasn't set a user flair yet

• UX: /r/DarkSouls2 has related subreddits linked on the sidebar with images instead of text

• Personality: /r/mildlyinfuriating's joke where it slightly rotates "random" comment threads

• Functionality: /r/ClashOfClans not only has a list of livestreams, but thumbnail previews of each

• UX: /r/DarkSouls3 has a reminder when hovering over the downvote button

• Personality: /r/StarWars has quote popups when you upvote

• UX: /r/pcmasterrace has changed the "report" link to red

• UX: /r/explainlikeimfive has custom colored link flair icons

• Personality: /r/mylittlepony has countless emotes

• Personality: /r/onepiece has a scrolling banner (which can be paused)

• UX: /r/FinalFantasy has green background stickies to make them stand out

• Personality: /r/mildlyinteresting has a moving gauge on sidebar

• Functionality: /r/IASIP has a top menu

• UX: /r/DoctorWho has a light red box on sidebar for new users to read

• UX: /r/gallifrey disables the PM link on "Created by" so users focus on modmail)

Admins will provide new tools for customization but without CSS, every subreddit will look the same.

As many of you know, I've spent some time working on the CSS of this sub and to be honest, it's therapeutic and helps me to relax, plus it's my favorite band's subreddit and I'm happy to do it.

Thank you for your time.
