A suite of new colors known as GuavaPink, LimeGreen, BananaYellow, and JuniperBlue will pop up in designs, bringing more color into the platform and its apps.

Saw it earlier today.
Looks ugly.
That’s not going to help them out of the mess they’ve gotten themselves into.
Gross
The dd in reddit looks like: ಠ_ಠ
I dont hate it. Specially with how all logos had to be flat garbage symbols these days.
They can change the logo all they want, it’s still nazi digg.
Looks like snapchats creepy bitmojis. Thats not a compliment.
Someone’s having a midlife crisis.
If spez is still running that dump, there’s no reason to even consider going back.
Even worse than the discord rebranding
Ha ha ha, yes, the lack of bright colours is why everyone has left!
We already gave you a pretty orange, what else could you possibly want? Content moderation? Bah!
I think it’s a little late for them to rebrand. People are leaving reddit like they they MySpace.
Bringing flowers to a grave once a year is not gonna distract regulars from the fact that you do zero to upkeep it during the other 364 days of the year.
Reddit is now Digg.
I find it odd that they changed their tagline from “the front page of the Internet” to “the heart of the Internet.” Reddit is certainly a massive hub for discussion, but “compassionate” is not the first association I have with Reddit conversations. Smug condescension, certainly. Frothing mob mentality, often. But compassion? Rare, at best.
I suppose that Reddit may be trying to simply manifest their hopes for the platform into a reality, but I don’t think it’s that easy. The Reddit welcome banner reads, “Come for the cats, stay for the empathy,” but most people probably know Reddit for the Boston Bombing debacle, r/theDonald trolls, and other nasty news items. It’s hard to believe the cushy corporate messaging when Reddit has so consistently allowed horrible shit on their site until the media fervor gets so intense that they can’t ignore it anymore
Don’t you know that Marketing is just fancy lying? They have to be as unethical as all the other big companies to succeed. You can’t expect a company to succeed by being ethical. When has that ever worked?
Yes, The sphincter of the internet

I was just starting to promote reddit to my friends when violentacrez happened …
It used to be the heart of the internet, but they’re about 13 years too late for that now.
They should consider rebranding to “another one of the Internet’s many assholes”
When “X” just isn’t gross enough.
As much as I like to shit on Reddit, Twitter is, in my opinion, still way worse. Way, way worse! I follow exclusively left leaning accounts and a couple of game developers on Twitter, yet my ‘for you’ tab has increasingly more right wing bullshit thrown my way. And I actively block stupid Nazi shit. Still, the Twitter algorithm thinks I might be interested in some local assholes who say openly racist and bigoted stuff.
