Reddit is ProCSS • r/modnews

This is the end result of working together in a professional manner. You guys seriously are a force to reckon with. We really did it. I'm overwhelmed at the moment so the right words aren't coming to me fast enough.

Tonight we celebrate. Ravel in our historic victory. Reap the benefits of our spoils etc etc.

After the partying... we wait and see. I suggest you guys sign up to powerlanguage's alpha to test run their new site and widget etc. And see with our own eyes on what the admins have up their sleeve(s).

Someone mentioned making this subreddit into a showcase for CSS themes now that we *won*. Thats a great idea but lets first see how this all plays out before we make this into an an art gallery.

Finally, thank you once again for coming together for this cause. This would never have been resolved so quickly if it weren't for the efforts of everyone involved. Let the record show it has only been 21 days since spez's original post. In less than a month we mobilized in full force and let them know our opinions. And they heard it loud and clear. This is no small feat. So bask in the glory.

So do we shut down this subreddit now?

The important bits:

reddit will still allow CSS customization on top of the new interface, but will be less hesitant about breaking subreddit styles

"Logos, images, colors, spoilers, menus, flairs (all kinds), and lots more will be supported"

"Widgets" mentioned in previous post aren't directly related (they're more related to stuff like calendars/scoreboards in sidebars, e.g. in sports subreddits); they're still considering how to go about accepting user-created widgets, and widgets will be updateable using the API

the change/redesign will happen slowly/gradually

they'll start with a small alpha testing group and gradually expand to an opt-in beta; reply to this comment[1] for a change to be part of the alpha

Simply amazing. Goes to show that when enough people come together to speak out in a (mostly) rationally way, they will be heard. Kudos to /u/spez for shedding some light on the situation sooner rather than later.
