This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Reddit has gotten really lame, there's always been saddos who troll through entire post history's when they can't win an argument.
Lately they've changed stratagies to calling people underage instead hoping mods delete accounts or something I guess. It just comes across as absolutely pathetic to me.
But yeah Reddit is definitely breaking old.reddit on purpose and will probably be just mostly bots soon .
Reddit is unusable without old reddit. Reddit.com is a horrible user experience.
RIP
They are also forcing it for regular reddit. I get a pop up and when closed you can't scroll. There is even a thread about what to put in ublock to work around it.
Nice to see Reddit helping contribute to growth in the fediverse.
That's what brought me here. And so far I am loving it. Wish I had made the switch long ago.
Completely unrelated question: any recommendations for a good porn feed, besides fedinsfw.app?
I could start streaming my showers? I take two a day
I know that you meant this as a joke, but this is literally how online communities are built. One really dedicated nutter just keeps posting OC whether anyone else wants it or not, and slowly other people start adding stuff because it's an active place.
So, you go right ahead and you do you.
Welcome to Lemmy for the last reddit users, that used old.reddit, looks like we are complete now. The rest of reddit are noobs and bots.
I came here three years ago when they killed the API and Reddit is Fun on mobile. I refuse to use their mobile site but still used their desktop. If they kill old.reddit I guess I'm done then.
It’s why I moved onto Lemmy. I can’t stand new Reddit.
For me it was the API changes that was the final straw. 3 years ago.
I don't use Lemmy as much as I did Reddit. But I've also never missed Reddit.
Not just old reddit. Regular reddit also got login gated
Yep loved old.reddit but nope, no more. Happy to be a Lemmyor now 😀 or whats the correct term? Lol. Cheers!
Interestingly enough, old.reddit users are in the single digit percentages:
Even if they weren't hostile towards old.reddit (the ads are far less invasive and effective), they could make a strong argument for not wanting to support a dwindling, tiny userbase.
Logging into old.reddit.com via tor browser works intermittently. As far as I can tell the reddit onion site is entirely broken.
