      maybe they accidentally left some transparency in place of the white when they first deployed, thus the back background seeped in

        That thing still looks like something that could devour my sleep paralysis demon.

          The completely red/orange eyes with no pupils and overly “happy” expression is what makes it so bad. It’s a very good representation of reddit in a way. It’s like the image version of the tiktok voice, deeply disturbing.

        Makes sense. I use a forced dark mode setting for all sites so every so often something comes out looking strange.

        Or maybe im just seeing their true nature!

          ^ Oh, that forced dark mode is most definitely it. It probably takes only the pure whites from images and turns them black, while retaining the grays and other colors

        Yeah I was about to say, this looks like they forgot about dark themes at first.

        Still, it’s a weird logo. It does look distinctively horror-y, and the shading is also weird. Stubble?
