To be fair, desktop web experience isnt much better
- colechristensen 6y agoold.reddit.com still works
- PikachuEXE 6y agoHope it won't be dumped forever
- ffpip 6y agoIt's already missing the new 'features'. - Chat and non-email sign in. Gallery view could be a bit better on old.reddit.com.
- hombre_fatal 6y agoAre you talking about something else? old.reddit.com has chat, and you register without an email by clicking "Next".
- ffpip 6y agoBy non-email, I meant the newly implemented Google and Apple ID sign in methods
- Havoc 6y agoThey did say it'll stick around long term when the change was made. Whether that's a promise that will be kept remains to be seen
- vertbhrtn 6y agoThe rule of thumb: if the corporate says something, they lie.
- MagnumOpus 6y agoThat goes double for the statements by the C-suite, and triple for Ohanian and Huffman in particular. There are numerous principled statements of theirs that were chucked to the wayside when there was money to be made or power to be gained.
- whywhywhywhy 6y agoMaybe it should be honestly if the new reddit and mobile app are what the company thinks is worth spending time on. Once old.reddit dies there is a chance for a transition to a new site like Digg 2.0 -> Reddit
- nullifidian 6y agoIt "works". For example doesn't load "more comments" for me in huge threads. But the new Javascript driven one is downright disgusting in terms of UX.
- adwww 6y agoIt's basically unusable without this. For example, on the javascript heavy new version 'my profile' link only loads about 50% of the time for me, and when it does work, it's far less usable than the old site.
