I stopped using reddit on mobile after the api debacle. Once old reddit is done, I won’t be visiting on my desktop either. The redesign is and always has been trash.
old.reddit is just the official website with the old layout from before they redesigned their front end ui. It’s part of Reddit’s official website that they kept around because so many people hate the redesign, it’s not a 3rd party and therefore not affected by any pricing policies.
I literally predicted that old.reddit.com would shut down in 6 months after u/spez said it’s not going anywhere, just like Apollo. I wasn’t sure how seriously to take this but I think I will be pretty close.
The sad thing is that this is the reason they’re planning to shut down oldreddit

Tbh i was surprised that it is still up. Aren’t they affected by the API pricing or something

Thank You, kind stranger(s)
It’s part of reddit, the api debacle was for 3rd party api users.

What’s sad about it? Reddit is garbage. Get off it and stop using it.
