View submission: Updates to Community Page Design on Desktop
This is based on the existing custom post styles feature. We didn't make any changes to this. Could you elaborate on what the limitations are?
So in old Reddit, a lot of communities have custom CSS styling for sticky posts to make sure they stand out differently. And it's done on sticky posts themselves.
The workaround for new Reddit is to give sticky posts a special flair and have flair post styling. But that's not a great workaround if you already have other flairs in use. Plus, it means an extra step on stickying: Sticky it and then set the special sticky flair. Also, when unstickying, remember to unset the sticky flair. This is the sticky styling you can see in your screenshots, hence why it might be confusing to mods seeing it here.
The ask is to add another setting in the Posts styling for sticky posts. So when you sticky a post, it automatically gets some extra styles applied.

Got it. That makes sense. I'll discuss it with the team.
