If `old.reddit.com` goes down forever I will be very disappoint. New Reddit doesn't work with JS disabled, and I enjoy surfing with JS disabled because I enjoy the privacy benefits.
I've been getting this too (in the UK), but if I access the horrible new interface, the same page will then load if I go via old.<p>So if when I just clicked on this URL, it won't work:
<a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_forbes_having_a_child_outside_marriage_is/" rel="nofollow">https://old.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_fo...</a><p>But if I went to this one first:
<a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_forbes_having_a_child_outside_marriage_is/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_fo...</a> ...<p>THEN this one works:
<a href="https://old.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_forbes_having_a_child_outside_marriage_is/" rel="nofollow">https://old.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_fo...</a> works.
Use a teddit instance: <a href="https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit" rel="nofollow">https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit</a>
Seems like old.reddit.com is experiencing problems. Shows message:<p>> Our CDN was unable to reach our servers > Please check www.redditstatus.com if you consistently get this error.<p>However, according to the status page everything should be operational.
if old.reddit.com gets retired definitely i'm either switching to some kind of self-hosted ui or i'm leaving reddit definitively.<p>no way i'm using that smoking pile of shit that's the new reddit ui.
