Ever since they’ve started nagging to get the app, nagging to log in, not letting me read more comments without logging in, I’ve stopped using Reddit. I came here instead. I opened Voat one time because I found some people in a ~6 year old FOSS Reddit thread who had used a script to replace all their comments essentially with ‘Screw Reddit, I’m going to Voat.’ That place is a _cesspool_.
- andrewflnr 6y agoOld.reddit.com still exists, and is a lot more usable. Ed: to be clear, I use it logged in. I don't know how dark-patterny it is when logged out.
- yaomtc 6y agoOld.reddit.com is not usable on mobile.
- modeless 6y agoI use it on mobile. Still better than the new site. Chrome has bugs with the "text scaling" feature but if you turn it off then old.reddit.com works fine.
- paranoidrobot 6y agoLike the sibling commenter, I use old.reddit.com on mobile - but the key being that I switch the browser into Desktop mode.
- meowster 6y agoIn posts with embedded pictures, I have to remove the "old." in the URL in order to be able to see the pictures, switching to desktop mode doesn't solve the problem.
- skavi 6y agoi.reddit.com is a fairly fast mobile interface.
