Seems to still work for now, but they’ve also removed the ability to sort comments in the old version, and stripped other features. While they say they won’t “remove” old.reddit.com they’re doing their damnedest to make it annoying/useless.
Using the normal reddit website now as a guest though is all but completely useless. When you click the comment section you don’t see any comments, just the story and then a list of “recommended” other links and a banner to sign in over a small link to continue to read the comments. On expanding that, you only see the top level comment and clicking to expand it tells you to sign in and you can’t continue.
I guess they’re going the Instagram route and moving towards app-only.
- milquetoastaf 6y agoIf you use Reddit Enhancement Suite on old.reddit.com you can still sort comments and do all sorts of power users things - including running scripts / plugins! Yes, reddit actually used to encourage that sort of development. I still run an old old old plugin to delete my comments after a week
- companyhen 6y agoI can still sort comments on old reddit. Do you use Reddit Enhancement Suite?
- ObsoleteNerd 6y agoNope, I used to when I was an active reddit user but I stopped using RES when I nuked my reddit accounts.
