“We are a completely different company than we were a year ago, having improved in just about every dimension.”

On Wednesday, CEO Steve Huffman (who goes by u/spez on Reddit) shared his annual “State of the Union” post with the Reddit community, giving a recap of Reddit, Inc.’s biggest accomplishments in 2016 and a preview of what’s to come in 2017.

“Last year was our most productive ever,” Huffman writes. “We shipped well-reviewed apps for both iOS and Android … [which] now account for over 40% of our content views.”

Other achievements highlighted in his post include:

updated moderator mail;

a new version of the mobile website;

a new blocking tool;

image hosting on all platforms (“which now supports the majority of images uploaded to Reddit”); and

spam reduced by 90%.

He also previewed a few of the major changes in the works for the new year.

“Some of the things we are working on right now include a new frontpage algorithm, improved performance on all platforms, and moderation tools on mobile (native support to follow),” he writes.

The announcement that generated the most interest, however, was related to upcoming updates to Reddit’s desktop site:

“One project I would like to preview is a rewrite of the desktop website. It is a long time coming. The desktop website has not meaningfully changed in many years; it is not particularly welcoming to new users (or old for that matter); and still runs code from the earliest days of Reddit over ten years ago. We know there are implications for community styles and various browser extensions. This is a massive project, and the transition is going to take some time. We are going to need a lot of volunteers to help with testing: new users, old users, creators, lurkers, mods, please sign up here!”
