I literally have no idea how to open a large image on new reddit. I tried. The least amount od clicks I know to actually see it uncropped is 3 and it does full page redirects on each of them. Maybe it's ad blocker or something... Don't care anymore.

I started using both old and new reddit at the same time. Old one also has working notifications...

It's such a shitshow. I have no replacement for it, but combined with mobile app I've cut my usage by 95%. Barely post and reply anymore, stopped wiki edits and so on.
