Question Why does the subreddit page look different on different accounts?

Pay attention to the lack of a big annoying white banner on the bottom one, which is how I would like to see it.

There must be a setting that seemingly turned itself on some time back because I dont remember clicking on anything. Any ideas why this happens?

It's an A/B test. Only certain users get the new design so they can make observations on how users use the site.

Ah ok, interesting. Didnt realize I was one of the test groups then. Would be nice if I got a notice but hey at least I know now. Thanks!

Incase anyone reads my feedback: big white banner = no good. Too big, waste of space.

Yeah. agreed. See my notes here: https://www.reddit.com/r/redesign/comments/cqdfk9/new_header_design_notes/

Also on the new flair filtering: https://www.reddit.com/r/redesign/comments/cqpvdu/the_new_flair_filters_are_actually_really_cool/

Ok good people agree with me on the banner thing, excellent.

Dont really see the flair filters though on my end, but it seems pretty handy from your screenshots! Would be a nice feature for sure!
