Rhyme redesigns its Reddit alternative after user feedback
Rhyme.com is a discussion service launched about six weeks ago. A full redesign is now live after nearly a month of repeated changes based on user feedback. Unlike Reddit, it creates one discussion space for each subject instead of splitting similar conversations across several communities.
Posts automatically appear under multiple related topics, which are organized in a hierarchy. For example, an AirPods Max post can appear under AirPods, Apple, and Technology, making it easier to find. Rhyme uses one consistent system rather than relying on separate volunteer .
It hides public like counts and requires people to give a reason when they dislike a post. Its slightly reduces the of trolling, personal attacks, and aggression while giving positive interactions more exposure.

- The team spent nearly a month revising the product from user feedback.
