That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

The fact that crypto is listed on the side makes me wanna bump my head on the wall.
The whole thing in general looks like a mobile app stretched to fit on a monitor. I mean, that's how most websites are in 2023.
Not only do I hate the cultural shift from laptop/desktops to phones, you can't even avoid it when on your desktop because of how websites are designed for mobile first now.
That's not a mobile first principal. Mobile first design and development includes progressive enhancement as the viewport grows. You can make a website that operates perfectly on mobile and desktop. These fucks just don't actually adhere to any philosophies or standards. Don't blame mobile first, which is a brilliant approach, for the shortcomings of a dumb-ass company like Reddit.
It's called "responsive design" i think. I played around with it a bit when learning html years ago. You can get free website templates that have this cooked in - like, you don't need to code anything. Seems easy to do and pretty much an industry standard now. Pretty weird that reddit would choose a trashy option instead.
Yeah I used bootstrap for building some websites almost a decade ago now, and I used responsive design. You could have the website in a small browser window and it'd appear as the mobile version with a navbar at the top. As you drag the window wider it slowly morphed into the desktop version.
Responsive design is approach you can use as part of your mobile first development. There are others, but responsive is a good one.
So much white space.....so many frames...so much waste....I can't look away....it's whispering to me ....
Mandatory Website Obesity Crisis mention, TL;DR:
A lot of apps are also just web wrappers for a mobile site.... It's obvious with some apps, others are a bit harder to see, but it's there.
Low effort app developing.
