For once, I can say without sarcasm:

We did it Reddit!

Some days we stray further from Naga's light.

But it is not this day.

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

It's fucked up that this even had to be a debate in the first place.

But, good on them for making the smart choice.

Very excited about this, especially since it means we'll be able to keep all of our awesome flairs and keep adding more. >.>

Nice!!!

I really like the aesthetic, and the bajillion and 1 flairs on this subreddit... Even though we still lack a Dewey flair...

Who the hell thought getting rid of it was a good idea to begin with?

Seriously was there *any* subreddit that was pleased by this proposal?

Calling it now, once all the hubub dies down, they'll just break everything anyway.

I'm proud of us, guys! But I'm even happier that /u/spez took the time to listen to reddits opinion! Well done everyone!

Hell yea, Maybe we won't even need a bot for our 1000+ flairs!
