As part of ongoing efforts to simplify Reddit and improve Home feed personalization, the final steps to deprecate r/all are being implemented. All links to r/all will now redirect to the Home feed, following the prior removal of r/all entry points. Trending content remains available via r/popular.

Redditors on old.reddit.com, or those with settings that default to the old Reddit experience, will continue to access r/all as expected.

    I can’t believe they didn’t nuke old . reddit yet. I left when they killed the API that killed off all the 3rd party apps. Deleted my account and never looked back. Fuck reddit, fuck Spez, fuck the greedy corpo that its become.

    “in order to simplify Reddit”

    Corpospeech has evolved from euphemisms and marketing tricks to being completely divorced from reality hasn’t it?

    /r/all was the simplest thing ever, the best posts of all of Reddit. It was a normal button/link. It was Reddit itself, “the front page of the internet”

    But thankfully there’s still “Reddit Pro” and whatever bullshit they came up with since going public. That is so simple!

      It’s double speak.

      People learned the power of words and now they are abusing them.

      The American public with all their faults will nearly trust any written word. Anything besides what they’ve already been programmed to immediately be skeptical of they will readily accept into their reality like good little consumers.

    I guess they are just ignoring old.reddit until they pull the plug on that completely

        People who are used to scrolling with a mobile device use it. Thats the whole point of it, make it look like an app. 99% of the users who joined after the introduction of new reddit are youngsters, if they don’t use the new reddit website, they use the app, which is just the new reddit site in a app. I bet a concerning amount of them don’t even know you can browse it on a computer, let alone old.reddit.

      Last I checked, old.reddit had about 2% of the users. So yeah, it’ll be shut down whenever they get around to it, I’d imagine. Whenever they add something that breaks it, it’ll be gone.

        Yeah I think that’s the thing, they haven’t done anything to/with it. Once they do something that doesn’t work on it, they’ll go “oh deary me. Welp, better put it out of its misery” and shut it down.

          Before I gave up on reddit completely, I was getting lots of 429 errors. Although asking around, some were, some weren’t. Still not sure they weren’t targeting me - apparently I hit their radar and they ban my accounts whenever they figure out it’s me (I just want to mod in my local subreddit, I’ve slowly disengaged from everything else). heh

            I gave up on it when I got suspended for the 4th time in half a year. I had been using it since 2009-10 or there abouts. Never had any issues. Then about 18 months ago I started to get 3 day suspensions for the most tame shit. I appealed all of them, every single one that was checked by a human was reverted. Then the last one I had, I appealed, didn’t hear anything from them. So I waited the 3 day suspension run its course, sent a few messages I wanted to send and deleted my account.

              Similar here except I went from a warning to a full ban the last two accounts. And for a little while there, when they banned one account, I got a half dozen bans on multis I’d created years ago for some stupid joke and hadn’t used since I created them. heh.

              They just really have decided they don’t want the older users around, I guess.

                same here, somehow they attribute your current bans that expired and they lifted as ban evasion, and then banned all counts that participated in a sub, they think you were banned it.

                ALso its been reported they ban newly created accounts too, and old inactive accounts. i was on another forum how you need to go through a"ridiculous" process of warming up the account."

    I read this as they learned it was far too difficult to moderate /all and that the easier thing corporate wise was just remove it.

    This is the censorship - you can only see posts from subs they white list, or subs you already know about.

      It’s to funnel users into propaganda bubbles and voids, making it harder for them to see alternate content and viewpoints. It’s been pretty obvious with how aggressively they remove and discipline antifascist politics.

    I’m on old reddit and I didn’t know there was a difference between /r/all and /r/popular? Theres the subs you are subscribed to and then there is the trash main page. What is a home feed? Is that the front page with your subscriptions?

      Popular is supposed to be the highest activity subreddits. If you keep scrolling you’ll only see older posts from the same set of subreddits. r/all is all the subreddits sorted by popularity, if you keep scrolling you see lower and lower upvote counts.

      Your home feed is your subscribed subreddits.

          Ah ok, so are we using homosexuality to reduce their stature as men? Make them other? Not sure what the intent of this photo is, feels icky and wrong.

            Well Spez is a conservative piece of shit, so he’d probably get pretty offended by this pic, which is most likely the intention. Not that he’d see it. Just that it’s funny to think about him seeing it and getting offended.
