Oh no.
Anyway.
That site died with Aaron Swartz. What remains is a sad, disheveled, dead husk of what was.
Tbh it could have “died” if Aaron Schwartz was still around. Wasnt he a “free speach absolutist”? So the site could swarm even more with fascists if he was still here.
Could have, we’ll never know.
Only new reddit weirdly enough. If you have redirect script to old.reddit it works fine.
Old Reddit is just abandoned at this point. They probably don’t have a single developer maintaining it.
It’ll stay exactly the way it is until Reddit switches of the subdomain.It’ll stay exactly the way it is until Reddit
switches of the subdomainrealizes that is how all its users are avoiding the garbage in the new interface.RIP .compact
It made it so easy to leave Reddit.
Another fan of the late .compact (i.reddit.com)! It really was the best way to see Reddit on a mobile browser.

There’s a cesspit I don’t miss in the slightest.
i miss the content on there, and decades worth of answered questions, as well as how polished it was compared to lemmy
but I don’t see myself going back there either
I can understand your viewpoint, I did have 12 years there.
I remember very well when Pao was CEO, and the bigass infographic of the exodus from Digg. The fall of FPH and jailbait. Unidan. I even created a Voat account, and promptly regretted it.
I’m sometimes shocked by how immediately and thoroughly I turned my back on the history of Reddit, but I’m as temporarily at home in lemmy as I was in Reddit.
Lemmy, as all things, will fall. Entropy always wins.
i was only there for around 5 years but I was overall quite happy with the community there (granted I spent my time in small hobbyists subreddits), and Lemmy seems to be quite a good community too but a lot smaller and so there’s less information to be shared
Ride the tiger, you can see his strypes but you know it’s clean.
Despite what the Lemmy zealots say, it’s not a shit site. It’s a site run by shit people who want to monetize you as much as possible with tracking data. Other than that, the content on Reddit is far superior to Lemmy.
This makes @[email protected] sad
Reddit now blocks VPN connections unless signed in.
Now my brain hurts less. Annnnd oh well, on with my day.
