A friend sent me the link but I guess I'll have to tell him to send me screenshots in the future.
old.reddit still lets me view it. For now....

old.reddit will be killed off before the ipo in March

189 1 ReplySpez explicitly promised they wouldn't get rid of old reddit.
Which I took to mean they intend to ruin it by cramming all the shitty new features into it and taking away the things it does better.
Edit: I don't trust spez lmao I just think what he said might be a hint for how they will fuck reddit up going forward

I don't know, old.reddit feels like it probably serves some internal purposes, and it's a safe fallback for when they inevitably release buggy shit on the new site.
old.reddit will probably be broken or maybe even restricted more and more as time goes by (it already has been) but I don't see them killing it entirely.
25 0 ReplySounds likely that in the future, they will release changes that will break old and they will decide not to fix it.
8 0 ReplyAh yes, the AlienBlue treatment. Just stop updating it, and implement features that are almost laser-focused on breaking functionality.

At the very least, they will remove NSFW content from it.
5 0 ReplyI thought I read old reddit still has a lot of mod tools that haven't been brought over yet, seemed to be it's main purpose for continuing to exist.

Old Reddit is the only place moderators have any 3rd party tools. When Reddit kills it, many more mods will quit. Large subs will be completely unmanageable
