> old.reddit.com and Adblock works perfectly fine on the phone. Better than Reddit’s mobile site.

What if I told you that Reddit is going to do away with 'old.reddit.com' next?

In spez's AMA, he said "old reddit is not going anywhere"

Years ago, when announcing the new website, he said "the API is not going anywhere"

old reddit is 100% on the chopping block

Either I switch to the new interface and be grumpy about it for a few weeks until I get used to it, or I stop going on Reddit and spend less time mindlessly consuming content? Or maybe I spend more time on TikTok/Instagram short form video? I’m not really worried about the bad spez taking away my reddits.
