That's all well and good for now, but surely you can see that old.reddit.com is likely also on the chopping block?

Where did you see that?

Seems self-explanatory. They're fighting for profitability, prioritizing mass-appeal, prioritizing ads, and maintaining two UIs in an advertising business sounds like a huge hassle. I'm too lazy to edit the URL so I don't even know - does old.reddit.com even support the giant image ads?

Also, old reddit has to remain mostly unchanged for it to fulfill its purpose, which means marketing can't incessantly twiddle things with A/B tests and push crap like NFT avatars.

I don't know if many people can answer this question, bc nearly all folks I've seen using old. also use adblock so we don't see them anyway :P
