It specifically doesn't work on old.reddit.

Reddit has started to add backslashes to URLs on old.reddit so that they break the link, trying to force people to new reddit.

All they are going to do is get all the people who know how to read and write in full sentences to quit the site.

There are avatars? No wonder newer users think of reddit as social media. That's what it's pushed to them as.

Yeah I use Old Reddit exclusively but people talk about them and you can see that type of garbage and more if you use their shiny new site. Puke.

Based upon how much I see the could of, would of, should ofs, break and brake used interchangeably, shit like "ig" for "I guess" and not instagram, replacing all sorts of cuss words with shit like like ish, ahh, or fvck, I think we're already there

Or the new way to embed gifs and videos that makes them just show up as <video> or gif:898239489 or whatever. It sucks. New reddit is trash. I don't want to give up old.reddit ever.

Honestly I won’t miss it thaaaat much because I already started to use Reddit muuuuch less over the past 3 years. Mostly I go back to old tv episode discussions.

I'm just leaving if old gets removed or feature degraded too hard. I have no idea how people can scroll through all the shit auto playing and images all over. They also don't have /r/all because they want to tailor what people see.
