As part of ongoing efforts to simplify Reddit and improve Home feed personalization, the final steps to deprecate r/all are being implemented. All links to r/all will now redirect to the Home feed, following the prior removal of r/all entry points. Trending content remains available via r/popular.

Redditors on old.reddit.com, or those with settings that default to the old Reddit experience, will continue to access r/all as expected.

I guess they are just ignoring old.reddit until they pull the plug on that completely

That will be the day I finally never return. Old Reddit kinda sucks but it's still miles better than the modern abomination.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Old reddit is a lot more tolerable if you're using it with RES. You probably already knew that, but I figure I'd say something just in case.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

RES is fantastic. Couldn't imagine using Reddit without now.

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 0 points 3 weeks ago

I'm aware of it but I've never tried it. Does it work on iOS?

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

So long as you use a Gecko- (Firefox) or Chromium-based browser, I don't see why it wouldn't work. There is no WebKit (Safari) support.

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 1 points 3 weeks ago

I thought those were all just reskinned versions of safari on iOS. Or am I wrong?

[-] xan1242@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

You're right.

The only decent-ish extension I know of is Sink It for Reddit. It's on App Store.

The website is still buggy as hell, though...

[-] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

I truly cannot understand how anyone can use new reddit. It is worse by every metric.

[-] TryingToBeGood@reddthat.com 1 points 3 weeks ago

At which point I will be off Reddit entirely

[-] HuudaHarkiten@piefed.social 1 points 3 weeks ago

Same. I've already deleted my account. I use it to find info on niche stuff, if I cant find the info elsewhere.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

That'll be my final day on Reddit. I already spend most of my time here.

It would have been the 3rd party app thing, but I exclusively use Reddit on my desktop at work. I got better things to do on weekends.

[-] daychilde@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

Last I checked, old.reddit had about 2% of the users. So yeah, it'll be shut down whenever they get around to it, I'd imagine. Whenever they add something that breaks it, it'll be gone.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 3 weeks ago

i think people are unaware of the old reddit interface, they just went with the doomscrolling UI like with facebook, instagram,,,etc.

[-] HuudaHarkiten@piefed.social 0 points 3 weeks ago

Yeah I think that's the thing, they haven't done anything to/with it. Once they do something that doesn't work on it, they'll go "oh deary me. Welp, better put it out of its misery" and shut it down.

[-] daychilde@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

Before I gave up on reddit completely, I was getting lots of 429 errors. Although asking around, some were, some weren't. Still not sure they weren't targeting me - apparently I hit their radar and they ban my accounts whenever they figure out it's me (I just want to mod in my local subreddit, I've slowly disengaged from everything else). heh

[-] teyrnon@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

They target me for violations that are not violations, used to be I could get 3 months out of an account before a second violation, my last new one I got a violation within the first week for something that wasn't even close. This is like the us administration pressuring them. Betcha.

[-] TryingToBeGood@reddthat.com 0 points 3 weeks ago

they banned me for violations on my "other accounts."

I don't have any other accounts.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago

you know when they give you that message, its thier AI just autobanning and just send an automatic message to your qaccount.

Also what likely happen as well, i found out in another forum, is they lump accounts together in a sub and banned them in bulk(and attribute all these account as similar, same users)

[-] HuudaHarkiten@piefed.social 0 points 3 weeks ago

I gave up on it when I got suspended for the 4th time in half a year. I had been using it since 2009-10 or there abouts. Never had any issues. Then about 18 months ago I started to get 3 day suspensions for the most tame shit. I appealed all of them, every single one that was checked by a human was reverted. Then the last one I had, I appealed, didn't hear anything from them. So I waited the 3 day suspension run its course, sent a few messages I wanted to send and deleted my account.

[-] daychilde@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago

Similar here except I went from a warning to a full ban the last two accounts. And for a little while there, when they banned one account, I got a half dozen bans on multis I'd created years ago for some stupid joke and hadn't used since I created them. heh.

They just really have decided they don't want the older users around, I guess.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago

same here, somehow they attribute your current bans that expired and they lifted as ban evasion, and then banned all counts that participated in a sub, they think you were banned it.

ALso its been reported they ban newly created accounts too, and old inactive accounts. i was on another forum how you need to go through a"ridiculous" process of warming up the account."

[-] HuudaHarkiten@piefed.social 1 points 3 weeks ago

Huh, that's weird that I basically got away with that. I used to switch to a new account every 6 months or so. It started when some weirdo started to follow me and commenting on every single comment I made. I think it was in 2013-14 somewhere around then. Ever since then, I threw away one to two accounts per year. The past few years it was more like every month or two. I was very active in /r/Formula1, they had 1 month time limit on new accounts, so once I was allowed to comment there, I'd throw away the old account. At times I used multiple accounts at the same time, one got suspended, I just logged into another. I know it was ban evasion or whatever, though it started as a way to keep the weirdos at bay.

Anyway, I never got burned because of that. I guess I wasn't bad enough to be on their radar.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago

i did that too, spread out the accounts so one gets banned the others dont. eventually they caught up with people doing that.

[-] dan1101@lemmy.world 0 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

If they have some reason to not like older users that would make sense with my experience. I had like 100,000 comment karma over the last ~13 years. Last month I posted something like "the only way he (trump) is leaving is if 100,000 people drag him out" and got immediately sitewide banned with no warning, appeal denied. That was about the harshest thing I ever posted, 99.99% of my comments and posts were neutral or positive and they could see that clearly from my comment history. I wasn't there to be mean.

[-] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 1 points 3 weeks ago

thier AI were looking any thing "pro-trump, anti-trump, anti-israel". also they dont bother fixing thier bot detection.
