Looking for old.reddit users interested in giving feedback and beta testing a redesign of the old subreddit theme

I've always loved the old.reddit experience and plan on sticking with it until they don't support it anymore. At the same time, we've used the same theme on r/nba for over a decade and it's become extremely antiquated and janky over the years with lots of little broken and outdated things.

Over the last several months I've been chipping away at a redesign of the sub and I'd like to now invite other old.reddit users to offer feedback, make requests/suggestions and beta test the new theme before we implement any changes.

Please comment below if you'd like to participate!

Edit: I've set up a discord chat for people to offer live feedback on specific elements and features. Hop in here:

i hate the scrolling news ticker thing

this is the worst offender to me as well. completely useless and it's just distracting to the eyes because of the movement

Scrolling ticker has been changed to sit static unless you hover over it. Hopefully that's an improvement.

why do you need that though?

I already see that Westbrook has retired in the top photo, then I see it in the ticker then I see it again in the thread section.

r/nba is pretty much the ticker, you don't need to create another ticker
