Great, thanks for the feedback again. When you say "bloatload of large pictures" are you using the app in "Grid View"? You can toggle to the "List View" with the toggle in the upper-right under the header.
I know I've used it both ways but list mode is still too large. The old design is exactly like the web version. Nice compact and slim and you don't need to scroll every 3 or 4 pictures / threads. Before it had like 10+ deals that would fit and compact without the bloat of pictures. It's too much going on. Also you still haven't fixed when you get a Slickdeals comment reply notification that it brings you exactly to the comment in the app. Just brings to main page once again so you need to hunt and look at history.

Also the see all comments button is useless. Most of the time you're scrolling comments so now it's an extra click to see all the comments. Why are you redesigning the app. You're basically changing something that isn't broken.

Got it - thanks again for the feedback! I'm with you on the reply-quoting deep linking directly to the thread - I am feeling your pain right now. We will get that one fixed.

Thank you again for the feedback. Yes, we know the comment drawer is not the way. We have a more familiar comment design on the way.
