Simple Mode

Just wanted to ask if there were plans for a 'simple' or less GUI/load intensive version of this forum (i.e. 'Old Reddit' compared to the current forum's 'New Reddit' feel)? Right now, pages take a weirdly long amount of time to load, due probably in no small part to the GUI; and it seems that a simpler forum style would make it more readable and more enjoyable experience.

    I'd prefer skipping straight past old reddit/new reddit and going for no reddit at all. Old reddit is still just a comment and forget image sharing format. not actual conversational threads. Unrelated, based on some F12 source scouring, i think this place is using LIAscript as it's underlying formatting base, with heaps of javascript as the rest.

    There isn't currently a plan for a 'lite' version of the site. It is built on modern web technologies, but as with anything new there are kinks that need to be worked out.
