This happened to me recently as well, but I'm using this opportunity to finally get rid of my reddit addiction.

I don't want to create an account. I don't want to use new reddit. It gives way too many location dependent results, and the UI has me scrolling way too much to find the same amount of content as old reddit.

Something fun I found out recently though, is that apparently their new UI is so shitty you can be on a blocked page (due to potential NSFW content) and just remove two overlays and the CSS class that prevents scrolling the main body and... just have at it. Look at all the naughty things you like! This is the kind of thing that could be automated really easily with a browser extension. Protect the kids, except when it takes effort to actually write a proper backend, amirite?

This was inevitable when they killed the apps API. That's why I stopped using reddit after that.

They really want to turn it off don't they? I don't know why they just don't instead of going through this first.

I haven't had a reddit account in years but obviously reddit comes up as a relevant search result often. I use the URL Replace extension in Firefox to rewrite any www urls to old. This is still working for me this morning (without login). Maybe they're rolling it out slowly?

Let it burn! 🔥🔥🔥

I am in India and honestly the Indian feed is just horrible filled with fandom wars, iam13andthisisdeep, offensive questions and opinions about sexuality/dating, rehashed relationship questions, toxic celebrity news and the nail in the coffin is political agendas directing narratives.

As much as i love the art, the culture and the developments of my country, the reddit community of india is just immoral, no manners reactive posts.

No body wants to have a discussion, they want to post their thought as a text post and skip the conversation.

Reddit community leaders, at least the good ones, are sorely missed. Good riddance to this app. It will die just as facebook.

Use redlib.catsarch.com, You can replace the url like with xcancel.

Not a reddit user, can someone explain old reddit? I thought it was just the same content with the older (original?) style

Yup i nuked my reddit account just before

Same here (Netherlands) since yesterday.

In addition to this, since yesterday old.reddit needs a log in, since this evening the standard reddit also nags (via pop up) for an account when I open a thread via google.

Shitty site owned by greedy assholes, administered by douchebags, moderated by capricious basement dwellers, and overrun with bots and mouth breathers.

It still works using Tor Browser with Javascript disabled, which is the most private way to browse it anyways.

It’s available for logged in users only since like a month ago or so. During one of the Mod Councils Spez promised they’d never get rid of it as long as someone’s using it, so they’ll just increase friction to access it more and more.

I can access the old look if I search by domain (i.e. reddit.com/domain/youtu.be) but subreddits and r/popular are all in the new style.

They are very cunning. They do it in waves. Unlike yootoob, which makes it atrocious design experiments unexpectedly and forces it on everyone at once, and sometimes they go back (maybe too many problem reports, and such). Reeddoot, instead just does it in waves: first small portion of users, then they wait, until initial screams are dismissed as 'a few users got affected, must be a random glitch/bug'. After it is calm again, then the next part of users is affected. same thing happens. And they use this tactic until majority are affected, and last resisters are already seen as 'technophobes', 'special snowflakes', 'grampas', 'exotic OS users', etc They boil users slowly. Mark my words - reeddoot will come to phone numbers being obligatory, then IDs being obligatory, then giving away your info to Law authorities, then to secret services, finally might end up with just selling it to any criminal clan.

the +Sub in url still work:

The limit seems to be at 20 subs added, or dependant of the size of sub (the list above are some of the most followed sub); you can have more if they are less followed it seems like this:

just tried. still works.

La Travestie!

Try Tor browser. Here is the link to old reddit https://www.reddittorjg6rue252oqsxryoxengawnmo46qy4kyii5wtqnwfj4ooad.onion/domain/old.reddit.com/

They were calling it in 2017

"To keep reddit safe"... Lololol

I have noted it too, I mainly used to browse /r/bestofredditorupdates in the mornings, and noted that when I was traveling to last week that it was blocked in Switzerland, when I got home I could access it for a few days, but I'd already detoxed from it, so I wasn't that interested anymore, and now it is blocked here in Sweden as well.

To keep Reddit safe. Not users on Reddit safe.

You're already here, but look into browsing through a redlib frontend for other reddit things you need

Same here, I started to use old reddit when it became impossible to search content in a specific subreddit (search basically searched all of reddit and on top of that, you get an AI search).

Guess no more accessing some game specific subreddits for me.

Oh my dudeski, they have somehow effectively blocked me from accessing the site AT ALL! It doesn't matter what browser I use, I keep getting a redirect error and can't even access the site. These idiots went FULL NUCLEAR on a good majority of its base just a day after going on the S&P market. They really fucked the whole users and the idea of what Reddit WAS about!

You’re not really losing much of value there, Reddit was set on its enshittification course for years.

Maybe it's time I launch magazines on mbin for all the other r/communities that I liked, hoping at least some of those pick up.

Reddit is now in my 'forget it' zone - It's nothing more than a sewer at this point. There aren't very many people on there anymore anyway. The whole platform is swimming with millions of chatbots.

Even logged in (with a banned account) doesn't work anymore.

Oh well, fuck spez

same here. worked with phone cellular for a while after my home/work net got blocked, but now that's gone as well..

They killed their RSS feeds too for old.reddit.com (still works on some regular reddit urls like https://reddit.com/r/games.rss)

I get redirected when I'm logged in but not when I'm not. Mobile still works but I don't think I've logged in again on my phone since it broke so I may be on borrowed time there. My accounts been banned for years and I only use it for porn anyway so no big loss there.

Whats scary is this is the only place I've found any discussion about it. No news, no youtube vids about it, just silence all aroundd

new reddit anonymous access is incredibly annoying because it gives a popup every few seconds

There have been many migrations from one site to another, I don't think this will be same as the big digg exodus.
