you must be aware that old.reddit.com is on the chopping block in the next few months/years, right?

Is that official, or just an assumption?

Just an assumption, but i.reddit.com was recently binned.

There's been a great deal of talk about it on reddit after they closed i.reddit.com (Despite saying they wouldn't). It wont get announced officially, it will just vanish at some point.

I'm probably rationalizing here, but i.reddit.com was exceeeeeeeedingly old. It was an iOS 3.x era mobile web design that had never been updated.

And yet it was infinitely better than the monstrosity of the “modern” Reddit front end on mobile.

It was still far more usable than the enshittified ‘proper’ version of the mobile web that does nothing but nag you to use the even more aggressively enshittified app.

Honestly, I'd rather they do it sooner so I have a greater impetus to leave Reddit; to go outside and touch the grass for once.
