Watch Reddit Die

Watch Reddit die. Pray for Reddit to die. Help Reddit die.

Rules

  1. No Reddit shills or trolls. But if you have a good argument for why Reddit should live, we'll hear you out.
  2. Try to be civil and intelligent. Be angry at Reddit, not each other.
  3. Provide evidence as much as possible without doxxing or harassing people.
  4. Should probably avoid linking directly to Reddit. Use archive.today and archive.org links.

Will add more rules as needed.

If you're concerned that your post might be astroturfed/brigaded by pro-reddit individuals, give us mods a heads up beforehand, and we'll try to monitor the thread.

Not really a loss given the shithole that place has become, but here's an alternative that's a bit more privacy focused if you want to browse in the old reddit style without logging in:

I clicked on the first one (safereddit.com) and it's not old.reddit.

Yeah, its just reddit front ends to access reddit for those who prefer to lurk without an account, but don't like new reddit UI.

Its what I've been using since old.reddit without logins stopped working and I've used the UI setting with compact and wide. You subscribe and filter our subs too and save the settings by copying some lines.

And redlib is easily self hosted if you wanna go that route, too. I have one running in a container on unraid. Super simple.
