Solution to the current crisis
Double tap left side to down vote and right side for up vote!
Tapping bottom right corner could be favorite
Eisenberg tax
imnotinprisonhidingaphoneinmybutt
Give back the layout we've all used without issue for years damn it!
Darkrift
Or..Triple tap for down vote. And *double tap and hold* for favorite or draw a heart on it with your finger Idk... Just throwing out ideas
ICantFindTheRightUsername
If I scroll down slowly now, I accidentaly upvote... Annoying
middlehead
Double tap is stupid, it doesn't need to be expanded. At worst they should add a toggle so we can choose button location.
myhappyanonplace
As a mobile user I primarily browse in bed so buttons being near the bottom of my screen are much more convenient
meretrixaugusta
I want to be able to double tap to UN-upvote, I accidentally double tap so damn much
TheRealWhaleLord
Would be an interesting idea. Or have the buttons at the bottoms of the posts be larger.
dromgkittay
So make Imgur Tindr?
shooter45
Seriously. Better thr other way, this new configuration is annoying.
shadepiece
Also, it should just automatically show all the comments.
tecryder
It makes the comments harder to interact with. Why would you do that? Comments are often the best part!
Boobeez
How about not having to hit a button to see past 5 comments?
TeRealSlimShady
I have not updated yet and at this point I don't think I'm ever gonna
thriftydonkey
I like it. The downvote button is closer to my thumb now.
deadpooldid911
Also I keep accidently skipping to comments on long posts
Blackd0nuts
I like this feature on the other hand. On mobile it's just necessary in long dumps
creeperklaus
Just a small thing to mention, make a setting too which switches the places of the down vote and up vote button, so lefties can up vote easy
playkill
OR JUST PUT THEM BACK DOWN THE BOTTOM!
blueygooey
i think of zombie land every time someone on here says double tap
wonderhammer
That guy is Vermin Supreme's vice president.
limpingzombi
Why is everyone bitching about this? You seriously can't move your fingers a few inches?
dekket
And what about the fucking comments? Only 5?! Soooo many awesome comments that will never be upvotes enough coz they're not visible directly
dekket
Like this one.
jamesearlsnakeyes
I don't see the point of hiding the remaining comments..if I don't want to see them I'll just stop scrolling down
meretrixaugusta
Yes!!! Why is this not brought up more! It's awful!
nameisunavailable
I have a windows tablet and I have to reach all the way on the top of the screen to go next. stop bitchin

This update is endemic of what occurs in mobile apps these days. App reaches peak usefulness, this poses a problem for the devs because 1/?
stu1985
usefulness the next only possible next step is a degradation of usefulness. They are essentially sacrificing app quality to keep people 3/?
stu1985
It means that people would be out of a job. To keep in jobs they come up with new UI which isn't needed. As the app has reached peak 1/?
stu1985
employed. 4/4
rand0mNPC
Tab to another app, come back, and it reset me to the beginning
rand0mNPC
Well maybe they should work on fixing the actual problems, then. The old app I didn't have many problems losing my place but this one I'll 2
Vedar
I see this all the time. Great app gets pointless redesign,a bunch of new bugs and a few less features.
stu1985
As the old saying goes "If it ain't broke don't fix it"
stu1985
Or "DON'T JUST UPDATE YOUR FUCKING APP FOR THE SAKE OF UPDATING IT FFS"
LexOnFyr
Well I don't mind the changes, they're nice.
stoploggingmeoutImgurIfuckingswear
Get rid of the stupid hovering share button. Takes up so much damn space.
sander1095
I'm left handed and I use the left side of the screen to double tap. Please let us choose what side upvoting/downvoting will be!
ThisNameIsNotAboutYou
What the fuck is imgur going on about this morning
limpingzombi
Nonsense. Buttons move a few inches and everyone is losing it.
ohhohohhhhohh
Best part of the new iphone is the double-touch on the home button feature. It lowers the screen for exactly this reason.
ocelot77
Yup. They call it Reachability and can be enabled/disabled via Accessibility options
Pwnage1337
OMG IVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND A USE FOR THAT DAMN THING! THANK YOU
ThatOtherMacAvoyWoman
My friend is tech disabled. Can you explain this to him?
ohhohohhhhohh
See ocelet's response below. Basically, tap (don't press) the home button twice and it slides your screen down.
ThatOtherMacAvoyWoman
Omg. This is amazing. Thank you - my friend
kwatshiboo
This. Why would you put the buttons on top? Thumbs are not long enough to reach them, if you browse one-handed, as normal people do
effinpirates
As humans do
UnevenElephant
Up vote is top left, that's what the new double tap is for, to compensate distance. Downvote button is still reachable in middle IMHO
StorageB
I've dropped my phone on my face twice already because of this.
ramtennae
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
mellibird
Seriously...I sat there and struggled telling myself that this was reasonable and I could touch the buttons...
RGoods110
Yeah, it doesn't make sense to invert the buttons. Why are they on top when on the browser site they're at the bottom?
Pugnae
If you have an iPhone, lightly double tap the home button (don't press it in, just two light taps)... You're welcome
mickison
Expecting people to know how to use their own device is too much to ask
randomrom
I tried this and nothing happened? Or maybe I'm just too stupid to know that this does not really work
Pugnae
It's real http://youtu.be/oEnp2zsVm2U
randomrom
Ohhh its for the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus. I'm just using a 5s. Explains why it's not working for me lol
teddyz
How about not using a tv screen sized phone so you don't have to worry about not being able to reach the top of your screen
kwatshiboo
How about app developers using up a phone not from the 90 to test usability, instead of creating a good looking, but bad working, surface
teddyz
Screen of a phone not from the 90s: /a/xJebo
kwatshiboo
Still not big enough for porn
MCFUDDLENUTS
Get rid of the dumb ass "swipe left or swipe right" that sits of bottom on mobile. BITCH I KNOW HOWTA SWIPE @SARA
HarbourMistress
Annoying little twat. Ask nicely.
Generalfertileloins
Woah bruh
ivgotvertigo
@sarapls
JudgeyMcJudgepants
Or maybe do the share feature back where it was. I think it's blocking 1/8 of my view :/
JSmith90
When using "safari" a little paw will appear and actually show me how to swipe
SylvusterStallun
LOL. This.
NotRelevantGif
I haven't updated and you all make me feel like I shouldn't
TheyScratchedMyWatch
And don't tell me to skip to comments! I'm not done reading damn it! I know there's comments!!
magicalmysterytour
I don't like the share button on the bottom right corner...Too distracting
TornBetweenWorlds
I hadn't even noticed till you pointed it out...thanks lol
magicalmysterytour
SpectralJustice
I don't have those on the bottom of my screen
SolarAmphios
I have an iPhone and if you go below the comments it shows it for me. You could just be special (or just possibly haven't updated).
demonic
it's on android as well tho i notice it doesn't always appear.
SpectralJustice
Nope, my app is updated and they aren't there. I don't have and iPhone though
PanSellegrino
How about the "go to comments" button that you can't get rid of?
ofcourseidoimaprincessandthisismytiara
I don't have that and I would actually appreciate one on those long ass twitter dumps.
TheWorldIsATollFreeToilet
I actually liked that, but it's not on the updated version.
moedown4143
On beta, no longer have it. So soon!
jakefromreddit
THIS
parano1dandro1d
Yes please. So annoying!!!
Exok38
I actually like that one. The sliding one is more obnoxious though. I have to slide from my viewing to get rid of it
jdf221
This was added because people asked for a quick way to get to the comments in long posts. If you scroll slowly it won't show up I think.
PanSellegrino
If I scroll that slow I'd be dead before reaching the end of a two picture album.
jdf221
The button really isn't that annoying. But I don't see why they can't add a setting to disable it.
cbotce
It is annoying. When swiping down a long post, no matter how fast you do it the button will disappear and reappear several times.
LordNoodles
Because it'd add a setting.
