It's a long walk of shame for a company and platform that once took pride in its openness.

    Working on it. A few weeks ago they added a new restriction: you can only use it while logged in.

    They just made it so you can only use Old Reddit if you've used it within the past six months. If you ever go that long without visiting Old Reddit it's blocked forever for that account. New accounts can't use it at all.

    Give it a year or two and they'll use the suddenly much smaller userbase as an excuse to finally kill it entirely.

    Reddit is a social experiment to determine if Stochbolm Syndrome can happen purely within a social media setting. Sadly, the only subjects that remain are absolte morons and the bot army they created to fool their idiot shareholders, so, they’ll never really get a good case study.
