old.reddit.com still works, and the day they disable it is the last day I am a Reddit user (which I have been since the YC days, as an original disaffected digg user)

On mobile i.reddit.com is probably a better fit.

Not for me, it repeats the same top ~20 posts over and over when I use i.reddit.com

And it's functional like a WAP site in 2001 was functional. It's incredibly barebones to the point of being useless. I reckon Reddit forgot it exists at all.

ditto, I always goto old.reddit.com, I think its tough to adapt to a new UX.

wait till they IPO. They will need to show growth and will erode away old reddit features, with more nags and modals to switch to the “new experience” — so they can boost ad revenue

The push to open web links in a mobile app has already become a PITA

they already do it in other ways like having certain features unsupported on the old reddit app. old reddit also shows a cookie modal that if you click it takes you to new reddit because it doesn't exist on old reddit
