That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Haha.
Don't worry folks, it was not a basic feature since day one, it was an experiment!
The way it's worded, it does sound like /r/all is the experiment they're referring to.
But I think it makes more sense if they're referring to an experiment involving /r/all. I remember reading months ago that they wanted to remove it, maybe they are referring to an A/B testing experiment (remove it for some people and not for others) there.
Yeah, that makes sense. They had an experiment to see if they could increase ad revenue by removing the all-feed, and now it's concluded and it turns out that yes indeed, enshittification rolls on.
I cannot imagine staying on a service that is openly admitting running experiments on its users to make them as addicted as possible. I guess it's a boiling frog kind of deal.
They said they wanted to remove r/popular a few months ago.
But it looks like they were referring to r/all this entire time.
No, it is clarified within the thread that /r/all will stop working "after the rollout is complete"
You're replying to the wrong comment there. This isn't about whether they'll remove it or not.
Apparently I am, meant to reply to the person pointing their browser there , sorry
I never subscribed to subs. I read all and individual subs.
