      Very much doubt it but they will lose a lot of causal trade page hits. A lot of finding solutions to things is why I end up.on Reddit now as it only useful result in Google.

      But the vast amount of people using it as social.media will stay

      It won’t just be this but it’ll be things like this, further monetization schemes, and eventually killing old.reddit that are gonna keep chipping away at their faithful userbase.

        I’m surprised they haven’t killed old reddit after all this other BS yet, tbh.

          That’s because all the admins are using old.reddit themselves.

          They can see the numbers for new shit reddit and old reddit. They haven’t gotten rid of it because it probably still has a ton of traffic that can display ads. It’s extremely obvious that they fucked up with the new design just because the old one has been around for so long
