  I'd argue it's not back until I can see everything without a login

    Yeah a huge part of reddit's usefulness for me is the ability to pull a page when googling something and being able to see discussion right there. I sympathize with the fear of scraping but I think this will hinder development and discoverability a good bit. It may also just be for the beta period? I don't see a blog with any info on that though.

      I'd imagine/hope just for the beta

  Who are the new owners? And how soon will the inevitable rug pull happen? I like their marketing angle though. There's definitely a niche opening at the moment.

    You're not gonna believe it, but it's the original founder of Digg and one of the original co founders of Reddit.

      This is what really intrigued me.

  I tried to make a post, very simply "What are you working on?" in the /programming section and it got insta auto-modded and removed. Looks like it needs some polish.
