      Have they actually said it? I’ve always assumed .old wouldn’t be around forever. I’m sort of surprised it’s lasted as long as it has.

        Spez said that they don’t have plans to shut down old.reddit.com anytime soon, so I guess July 31st is the last day.

          You’re probably right, he’s speed running turning Reddit into an IPO so fast he’s destroyed everything in under a month. Not to mention rolling back comment/account deletions to keep the comments up, he clearly doesn’t have a long term plan. This looks like a speedy cash out like he’s about to be caught red handed.

        A lot of people, myself included, would have left reddit a long time ago if it wasn’t for .old. The new design is crippleware. The mobile experience even worse.

      That would be like a sumo wrestler climbing on top of the current dumpster fire and taking a giant dump on it to add to the mess.

      If they do kill off old.reddit then I think it’s toast.

          Effectively just adding to a mess. There’s a point when you have a really nice new car and every mess is a huge deal, then it gets really messy and so run down, but still drives and you just brush it off every little ding - that’s reddit and their user base

      Regardless of whether they actually said that or not, I absolutely do not doubt that they will soon. Not even an announcement. It’ll just be gone one day
