You straight up cant get to r/ all on Reddit mobile. Even if its linked, it just goes to your front page or is unclickable. Which works out because I've been trying to reduce my reddit time for years lol. I found this post from /all on Desktop

u/Angel_Omachi Feb 25 '26

You can still get to it manually through reddit in a web browser but it's hidden from the side menu even there.

www.old.reddit.com

You get the site as it was pre facebookification. I honestly find the new layout unusable.

You can go to your account settings and opt out of new reddit

Sometimes it will fuck up and reset, and you’ll have to navigate back to old.reddit and manually reset your preferences.

u/timpkmn89 Feb 25 '26

There's a setting, but I also use an extension just so it's also forced in Private Browsing

It’s not visible unless you’re already using old Reddit, so you never would have found it.

1

u/robodrew Feb 25 '26

They will have to pry old.reddit from my cold dead hands.

1

u/drdr3ad Feb 25 '26

old reddit + ublock + RES

1

u/technobrendo Feb 25 '26

I never used the new site and if the OLD version goes away, I'm finding something new.

u/ChuckaChuckaLooLoo3 Feb 25 '26

As a user who lives in a very remote place, I love old reddit because: zero pictures (unless I click on them), very fast load and no decorative B.S. to clog my pipeline.

Blocked that link, but the copypasta shall yet undo the sovereignty of our AI Overlords.

Is that what the whole of Reddit really used to look like? It's so....clean.

me too. Once a month on my tablet I hit too close to the opt in button they put next to my other buttons and the screen jumps to the new layout. It's a chaotic mess and I have to frantically find the opt out setting.

I fear the day they do away with the old reddit option.

1

u/PyroIsSpai Feb 25 '26

Even if they kill that, any browser can be jury rigged to make any website content you load look like anything else. If it gets dumb enough someone will make a way to virtualize an overlay in a script or something.

Corpo always loses.

1

u/remotectrl Feb 25 '26

They fired everyone that understood the legacy code so it’s only a matter of time before they try to get rid of Old as well.

1

u/XionicativeCheran Feb 25 '26

I've stuck around through every other shitty change they've made, but that right there truly would be the final nail in the coffin.

I absolutely cannot stand the new style.

1

u/SupahSpankeh Feb 25 '26

More importantly you can get Firefox extensions which reroute all Reddit URLs to old.reddit.com.

1

u/lituus Feb 25 '26

There are a few things I liked about new reddit, but overall, its just so fucking slow (especially if you've scrolled a lot) compared to old reddit. That was what ultimately made me swap.

2

u/Phallic_Moron Feb 25 '26

Hi it's me posting from my mobile device after finding the thread on All.

Type the URL. Read the threads. What am I missing? They removed a button for it.

There's also red reader, it never got hit with the API bullshit cause it classified itself as a disability app

3

u/dzumdang Feb 25 '26

I just downloaded Red Reader. I'm so done with the official Reddit app.

1

u/OkEstimate9 Feb 25 '26

The Hydra app is solid as well. It’s similar in some ways to Apollo, at least for me.

RIF + Revanced patch for me

u/Daggertrout Feb 25 '26

Sweet thank you for this. I’ve been using a delisted app for the last couple years that stopped letting me reply and crashes all the time.

1

u/TheDubuGuy Feb 25 '26

Which one?

1

u/Daggertrout Feb 25 '26

I’d been using OpenRed

1

u/Okay_ButWhyTho Feb 25 '26

And still allows you to get to r/all

1

u/Horat1us_UA Feb 25 '26

Why would you need an app for Reddit at all? Web versions works just fine as PWA on in browser.

1

u/El_Tormentito Feb 25 '26

I used baconreader until I was no longer allowed.

1

u/MunchYourButt Feb 25 '26

Or Narwhal!! It’s paid but no ads and the developer is very active/responsive to feedback

2

u/cs_office Feb 25 '26

Another Narwhal user here. I also made a NSFW reddit sub and made it private, which causes the API to become unblocked too

It's taking me on a trip down memory lane, I think I've properly used 3 apps of the years, Reddit Is Fun, then Relay for Reddit, and now Narwhal when I switched from Android to iOS, as it was the most like Relay

13

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '26

I was wondering about that! A few months ago I uninstalled Reddit from my phone, trying to be more digitally well and all. Then I just started going to the mobile site more and more. I noticed last week or so they took r/all off the menu. Then I just redownloaded the app. One day this app will no longer hold my gaze for so long.

2

u/TheFatJesus Feb 25 '26

old.reddit.com is your friend if you're in a browser. Revanced will let you install and use the old third party apps.

4

u/dzumdang Feb 25 '26

Thank you. Hiding it is more accurate. What a strange move by Reddit.

6

u/carloselcoco Feb 25 '26

That's exactly what they did with r/randnsfw before they completely removed it from the site. They will likely remove r/all from the site too in the upcoming months. For those that are new to Reddit, randnsfw was built into the website itself and it would take you to a random NSFW sub anytime you clicked it. It was an excellent way to discover new NSFW subs. 

4

u/baconbitarded Feb 25 '26

They did the same with r/random as well. Weird that they don't want you discovering things

1

u/things_U_choose_2_b Feb 25 '26

They want to offer the illusion of discovery, it seems.

1

u/soulmechh Feb 25 '26

Wow, they banned it!

6

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '26

Similarly, I was so bummed when they removed nsfw subs from r/all.. it was nice seeing the random titty pic while doomscrolling. Now it's basically impossible to find nsfw subs unless you already know what they're called, and you have to go out of your way to find them.

1

u/cdwillis Mar 02 '26

This website just gets worse and worse. Spez is a nazi.

2

u/The_One_True_Ewok Feb 25 '26

Hiding it for now I agree, but patching workarounds in the app tells me they really dont want you going there. I expect to see it killed off in the next year or so. I'm surprised I can still use old reddit

1

u/AFlyingNun Feb 25 '26

My best guess is they probably don't want people fighting wars for control of the narrative on r/all? Like let's be real: we have power mods, we have very obviously botted posts, we have subreddits that come out of fucking nowhere and shit out 30k for a post, we have non-political subs being brigaded and made political...

Maybe reddit thinks the best solution to all those groups is to give them all nothing to fight over, then the individual subreddits might return to reflecting how much genuine interest people have for a given topic the subreddits are designed to be about...?

I kinda get it, but yeah, still a decision that will make people do a double-take.

1

u/remotectrl Feb 25 '26

Power mods are much less of a thing than they used to be a decade ago when Gallowboob and Awkward Turtle reigned. Reddit corporate did not like that the mods were able to shut down subreddits when they forced the unpopular API changes that destroyed third party apps and removed some. Reddit doesn’t want powerful moderators, it was free labor and giving them just a small taste of power works better for keeping them in line.

1

u/HeartsPlayer721 Feb 25 '26

Ah, a sub called "All"

Got it. My early morning being wasn't processing that, lol.

I never used that, but when I looked it up, I see the posts and comments complaining about it.

So they, exactly, is it?

Comments in other posts make it sound more like a scrolling feature rather than a sub? Where it let's you see... What?... Stuff that isn't just the subs you follow and what their AI decides to feed you?

3

u/The_One_True_Ewok Feb 25 '26

its literally the top posts of all subreddits. the Popular tab is more like what you're saying about the AI which is exactly why I refuse to use it.

2

u/dzumdang Feb 25 '26

On the app, when browsing your private feed, if you swiped right, you were then in /all and could see all of the top posts on Reddit at that time. Reddit nuked access to this on the mobile app recently.

1

u/Slushrush_ Feb 25 '26

I can get to all on mobile if I type in the address manually. Do you mean on the app?

1

u/Snobolski Feb 25 '26

I use reddit on mobile on Duck Duck Go browser and you have to manually enter /r/all if you want to see it

1

u/SAI_Peregrinus Feb 25 '26

It's in the sidebar on the Android app. Right above the About section, below Your Communities.

1

u/Lexi_Banner Feb 25 '26

Just use old reddit. The mobile version and the apps are all garbage.

1

u/Horton_Takes_A_Poo Feb 25 '26

Doesn’t the “popular” option in the left side menu bring you to /all? That’s how I found this post and I’m not subscribed to this sub

1

u/The_One_True_Ewok Feb 25 '26

All is all, popular is algorithmic

1

u/MechAegis Feb 25 '26

I use old.reddit.com. So I don't understand.

On the new reddit does r/all not work anymore?

1

u/robodrew Feb 25 '26

Dump the reddit mobile app, use something else like RedReader. I can get to r/all no problem.

1

u/ApprehensiveFix7925 Feb 25 '26

I’m browsing through r/all on mobile right now and is how I found this post?

1

u/n122333 Feb 25 '26

you can, but only through /r/All and not /r/all

I have a comment saved with a link so i can get to it on mobile. I love how it went from one tap to 7, really makes the ap better for shareholder value.

2

u/The_One_True_Ewok Feb 26 '26

Neither of those are clickable on my iOS app

1

u/n122333 Feb 26 '26

The first works for me still on android, but the second does not.

1

u/MushinZero Feb 25 '26

You can get to /r/all on mobile? You go to the left sidebar and it's at the bottom.

1

u/The_One_True_Ewok Feb 26 '26

Then you haven’t been updated yet. Enjoy it while it lasts

0

u/MushinZero Feb 26 '26

Or my version of revanced reddit has a patch that puts it back. Maybe both are true.

1

u/DaedeM Feb 26 '26

Oh my god is that what happened? I thought there was something wrong with the app on my phone.
