View submission: Next steps for new.reddit.com

Oh good.. I was afraid I was going to get to continue to use my whole screen forever! Thank g-d I am now forced to waste 2/3's of my screen with worthless columns that have no UX benefit!

Hopefully you've gotten rid of that useful "highlight to quote in your reply" feature. I hate my discussion forums being too easy to, you know, discuss things on.

Just measured it: The part that displays the post I want to read takes up only 2/9th (1/4.5th) the width of my widescreen monitor. And the text is tiny and illegible... If I use the brower's zoom function, the top bar of Reddit just becomes bigger and bigger and the stupid amount of empty vertical space and other junk just reduces my useful screen space to next to nothing...

Awful. Truly awful... Has whoever designed the new new layout ever used a PC before???

Totally I think it should personally take up at least 4/5ths of the screen. After all I need to be able to switch subreddit and read the subreddit rules ways more than I need to actually read the topic/comments of the topic I clicked on.
