along with the strong censoring that has occurred on reddit throughout the years, they have now removed r/all from the app and while using a desktop/laptop browser. instead of being able to stumble upon new subreddits you never knew existed, it wants to curate what you’re allowed to see
Reddit is not dying fast enough
Praise the lard & all tha good things in life.
It still works, but is convoluted. If you add r/All (rrmember to not use r/all, the capitalization matters) to your profile, it still goes there.
or… just not use reddit. Both options work.
Still works in Reddit Sync (with the Revanced hack).
It probably still works for you, like it does for my partner but not for me. This change appears to be a gradual rollout.
Continuum too, but I believe that’s because these apps use old.reddit, from which they haven’t removed r/all yet.
Reddit has gone full retard
Removed by admin
I wonder what it takes for the post to be removed from here and in the same time to have a bunch of upvotes. 🤔
Mods are overly sensitive losers that have never seen tropic thunder. They brought the Reddit hall monitor censorship shit here.
Probably something that’s against the rules and moderators can’t let slide, but that’s otherwise alright.
Or something that has botted up votes.
Or inter-instance/inter-community brigading?
Idk, just guessing
I checked the modlog. Berno’s post had the “R” word (it described Reddit using a quote from Tropic Thunder.) I couldn’t find NoSpotOfGround’s message.
Removed by god
i like farts
hey, look, a comment that’s higher quality than the average reddit comment
🍑💨 💦
??
I literally just went there to check it out. I’m on old reddit, and r/all is still in the “tabs” section on the top of the page. r/all is clickable, it brings up content, and the top post is just over an hour old (and I clicked through to verify the time on the post.
Old reddit receive changes in the last order. It may still have a functioning community for some long time but this community will not be accessible from from anywhere else(mobile platform, Reddit new, etc.).
I happened to look at their front page the other day and they were promoting their April Fool’s thing, whatever it was (I don’t remember). But they explicitly said that you had to either use the app or log in to new reddit to participate.
Using a direct link stopped working today and redirects to your subscriptions. The only reason I looked at Reddit was to go to r/all and sort by new to see what was out there.
I was afraid of that. I still occasionally browsed r/all on my PC after work. I’m not interested in their latest or popular pages. I’m tired of algorithms deciding what I should read or watch.
Just let me discover stuff, damn. :(
The techbros: No.
I’ve quit it for all except my reading and writing communities at this point, and only because I haven’t found anything comparably sizable. If and when I can, I will be trying to help build up alternatives for those, though. Fuck reddit.
Same for me, I only visit a few niche subs that haven’t gotten traction here and even that I do with decreasing regularity.
reddit.com/r/All can still get you to the r/all page, but its all old stale content now and no longer updating
Seems to work in RedReader so far.
Old.reddit.com in the browser also still works normally, only new reddit in browser doesn’t. And what kind of masochist would use new reddit over old reddit
Reddit slowly migrated away from being informational, to being identity based political vitriol. Want to know what’s currently happening with the president outside of biased left and right wing media? Too bad, but here’s an unflattering picture of him playing golf that we can all rage at, or get banned from 5 different subreddits at once because you don’t agree all cops or landlords are “bad”.
curate what it wants to show you
Ads. This means ads.
And communities that are moderated by that lady that worked with Epstein and Trump to rape all those kids for all those years
Still working as of posting.
I selfishly hope they remove that too. I was booted from Reddit a few weeks ago and now I can only browse old /r. If there is no old /r, then there is no Reddit for me, which would end up being a good thing.
I was still in that position last year so I get it. Saying I’d never go back if old reddit got shuttered. Don’t even really have advice because I think my disgust with the platform eventually became strong enough to override my* habitual urge to keep visiting reddit on the regular.
That’s all it is, isn’t it? Habitual.
A double sided blade within the human condition yep.
Can barely even run their bloated modern interface without my tablet browser crashing, old is the only reliable way to use it.
The modern web is so incredibly shit. I shouldn’t need a high end device to browse a web page.
I shouldn’t need a high end device to browse a web page.
Some pages, maybe, I could understand. Perhaps an online game or something like google docs.
But you should NOT need a high-end device to browse a web page of a fucking forum. (Guys, the modern internet was a mistake, let’s go back to phpbb.)
You’d better start believing in old Internet forums… you’re in one!
Which is why I like lemmy
it heats up the phone to, plus scrolling and backspacing seems to increase the burden on your phone, tablet.
Old Reddit is better.
In their path of killing their own brand, amazed they didn’t yet fuck over Old Reddit’s RSS feeds, or even ax those completely.
The problem with old.reddit is that it had this Damocles sword hanging over it for almost a decade - it could stop working any day. Plus, many subs don’t even cater to old.reddit anymore. It doesn’t just magically take over sidebar blurbs, this has to be done manually by mods. Etc. etc.
Well, thankfully we’re all here now.
reddit/spez probably knows the APP and the new UI is shit , probably why they havnt changed it yet. dont think they even improved the new one at all, if you are using it on your phone/tablet/
I’d be willing to guarantee that any Reddit employee uses the old interface when utilizing the site themselves.
they likely have a very small moderation staff, they let AI do all the “indiscriminate” banning. and its only the actual admins can unban people, which they ignore most appeals anyways.
They screwed with it when they decided you can’t see NSFW posts anymore, and they decided anything (comics, humor, opendirectories) can be NSFW
Old Reddit still works normally for that too, though likely due to lack of updates instead
I can’t wait to see what beloved institution Steve Huffman decides to ruin next
Because nobody uses RSS anymore, and those who do won’t be part of the target demographic they’re trying to hook.
Not to worry, it’s on their roadmap
Even if you are trying to just look at your own feed fully half of what you see if just random ass subs absolutely loaded with bot accounts pushing right wing bullshit and product placement.
r/popular is what they are trying to push, reddit wants people to visit old posts you already saw earlier
Since the enshittification of most “free” (as in: “you’re the product”) search engines, I’ve always had to do “[search term] + reddit” to get unsponsored, not AI-slop search results. Off topic, but still.
Not sure how good reddit is for that half the time now tbh
yeah I don’t even bother with adding it to search terms anymore
Then you have AI generated web pages turning up now, giving advice that could result in death if you followed it with foraging info.
you see half of reddit is mostly AI/ or bots. you arent missing much.
Firefox with the UDM14 plugin, and Google doesn’t give me that ai crap anymore.
Google doesn’t give me that AI crap anymore because I don’t use Google anymore.
Fair. I didn’t realize how embedded into my life I’ve let those fuckers get until I started looking into de-Googling. So for me it’s gonna be a slow process, but I’ll get there! Recently repurposed an OpenWRT One (a banana pi in a branded case, basically, for those who don’t know) into a home server to start learning about self hosting, which I expect will help immensely on my quest.
Honestly, I still use Google Docs, just because it’s incredibly useful for collaborating with normies without needing to get them to sing up for new shit. And because certain parts of my routine workflow are pretty dependent on it.
But Google Search? I haven’t used Google to search for anything for … well, for years now. Duck Duck Go works fine. It also tried to have AI bullshit, but at least it lets you turn the AI bullshit off easily and permanently.
good, no monopoly on communication is better for all
It is somewhat sad to see slow death of such old platform.
They did it to themselves. Poor management.
It was always going this way when IPO was announced
Nothing lasts forever.
If nothing lasts forever then the Fediverse will also have its downfall.
It surely will.
I’m OK with it at this point. Its run its course.
Imagine if only Reddit wasn’t a US company and had more chances of surviving the total eshittification happening in the whole country.
I’m imagining Lemmy.
