I think they’re keeping it around as a dirty little secret that either leadership doesn’t acknowledge or they realize it’s the last bastion of their power user base.
To that end, I hope it sticks around for a while, but if they ever get rid of it, I think the only ones left would be noobs and bots.
I thrive on the old subdomain, yeah. The new form with variable popup-like post frames depending on how you approached the content is barely even tolerable, and certainly much less appealing.
By the way, Slide works really well (again); that’s the mobile app that I use. You just have to go through the steps to list yourself as an app developer and claim it’s your app, which the current Slide maintainer literally instructs you to do to use the app lol. It’s great and cuts through all the crap. However, I’m really trying to be more active here across Lemmy, all the same. If Old and the remaining mobile apps like Slide go, then I’m totally out.
this just in: company enshittifies product and doesn’t give a fuck about you, only money. More at 10.
Anyone holding out as long as possible, old.reddit.com still worked for me earlier this week on mobile. Ymmv

LibRedirect addon allows one to change links to reddit’s and other sites’ mirrors instead.

Hello I would like to buy your competent product aaaaaand it’s gone.
there’s a handful of mobile apps that work very well, i assume, using a embedded browser, no ads, minimal interface, not hard to find
