Like legit, chapo.chat feels so much smoother to traverse with, and it's aesthetics are so much more pleasing to the eye to look at. New reddit UI is absolute eye cancer to look at. Of course there are bugs and certain issues, but seriously good fucking job, devs. Also, more evidence that worker co-ops work.

Quick edit, but my title is inaccurate. THANK THE LEMMY DEVS FOR THE UNDERLYING TECH. As Beatnik said in the comments, the Chapo Devs also did a huge amount of work on the front end experience as well as other important functionalities, so THANK THEM AS WELL.

    Because capitalism breeds innovation! Reddit failed to both adequately corner the link aggregator market and make the innovations needed to remain competitive, so beatnik and his team of free market innovators built an ambitious start up to take big tech head on. Cleverly appropriating open source software, the Chapo chat team built a decentralized next gen platform for the memes, and the internet, of the future.
