Old reddit was just the old UI. IMO, old UI was way better than new UI.
The reddit open source stuff was only a portion of the website and algorithm. I believe Voat and a few others might have glanced at that code. Last I looked it was still up on GitHub. https://github.com/reddit
Did anyone do that with reddit? It used to be open source too.
I know of https://github.com/CrystalVulpine/saidit. Unfortunately the site (saidit.net) is full of right-wing/conspiracy bullshit, at least last I checked.
Oh that reminds me, Voat happened. It wasn’t a code fork but a clone, and it was also filled with right-wing garbage.
Tildes is still around too, but I think it’s got even less traction than lemmy.
Lemmy is filled with actual communists, so I wonder if political extremism is correlated with alternate social networks.
I assumed thats what old.reddit was. But idk
