No option to exit or skip.
If any more people get caught up in their dipshit automod filters bugging out like I did it looks like it’s curtains for us. Ive been lurking but I guess this is my cue to actually be active on Lemmy now.
Yeah I seen that coming when I tried to make a reddit to lemmy Cross posting app. Reddit made a system where you can download a video but not get the audio. Also their embedded videos tend to require that you go to reddit.
Reddit is getting enshitified
In retrospect, getting banned did me a favor.
Lol nice. I had withdrawals when I got banned. I kinda like arguing with the random right wingers on reddit
Why force account creation if their AI just bans people en masse anyway? Has their rabid banning affected their numbers?
They’re manipulating their numbers so that they can present fraudulent user counts to investors
That’s how I ended up on lemmy, but I’ve seen more new memes in the past week than I’d probably seen all month on reddit.
Welcome!
If you want to see less of something, don’t hesitate to block a community.
But I mostly use the Subscribed feed, not All
My subscribed feed is nothing but Norm Macdonald jokes and Garfield comics. There is still room for Jughead comics but the community isn’t here yet.
Hej! (That’s how we say hello here in Sweden)
That’s why I’m here too. Unfortunately I’ve seen the same amount of ragebait on the front page as I see on reddit.
I hope even more come
So they’re shooting themselves in the foot. Good. I deleted my 15-year account back in 2023 after that greedy piece of shit, spez, screwed over the app devs. Only reason I ever visit reddit now is if it happens to be the end result of a google search. If they require me to log in to see it, then they will no longer get my traffic. And I suspect that will be the case for quite a lot of people.
Same. Had my account since Digg v4, deleted my posted comments and account after 3rd-party apps were effectively killed off. I lurked, but it looks like that is over now. I won’t even get to see the existing old information on the site from searches, but oh well…
Yeah, it’s like reddit ate the forums then ai ate the rest.
Most real? Lol its all bots.
Someone has to upvote and comment on all the AI generated videos!
That picture on the side looks like it represents the least real place on the internet
Oddly looks like an off brand LittleBigPlanet Sackboy Spinoff
Slop will tend to mimic like that.
However, it IS representative of the content on the platform.
Ugh goddammit. I still check a handful of long running CW post chains from some writers/users whose stories I’ve become invested in… but I guess I’m done with that now :(
Redlib is good as a front-end for reddit without needing to sign in, I use the catsarch instance normally but there’s a few public instances or you can self-host it.
Ooh, good protip! I’ll have to check that out.
Old.reddit.com still seems to be going, at least for a while longer. Same for old.reddit.com’s RSS.
Old reddit is now forcing an account.
Seems to be rolling in waves, going by other comments.
Ars Technica had an article about it recently:
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2026/06/reddit-will-require-you-to-log-in-to-use-old-reddit-com/
old.reddit is region based so it’ll eventually get phased out from working for everyone.
Like I found that with VPN Sweden is still one place where old.reddit still works without login. But, others prompt for login to use old.reddit.
But, I just moved to using redlib instance if reddit is needed now due to not wanting to login to an account.

Old.reddit just started requiring an account recently, too
Use old.reddit.com
Old Reddit doesn’t work unless you have an account.
Not yet, at least from my side:
The title of the first post in your screenshot made me look into the origins of the word Merzweckeier. Spaßig! Merz leck Eier.
I made this exact post a week ago after saying it was working for me on chrome mobile and got downvoted to shit lol people were big mad
Just tried it and it’s working for me too. Don’t know why you’d even bother with that site without an account to filter out all the default bullshit though.
The other day old.reddit was still working for me. Until it wasn’t anymore. Unfortunately its coming.
Some days it works for me in the morning and then not after lunch.
The change is being rolled out gradually, probably to test if they see a negative impact to their metrics from it.
Same here. Works fine for me!
I MEAN NO, ITS HORRIBLE! DOESNT WORK FOR SHIT. DONT BOTHER UPDATING OLD, REDDIT! JUST MOVE ON BECAUSE ITS JUST SO BAD! SPEZ IS GOD! REDDIT IS GREAT! YAY REDDIT! LOVE THE APP!
It works well for me without…
We can’t promise it will be around forever, but [Reddit CEO Steve Huffman] himself has said we’ll keep supporting it while folks are still using it. That said, it doesn’t have the same modern security tech stack reddit.com has, so we need to tighten security on old reddit to keep it viable.
That piece of shit spez is stating its a requirement, I cannot access without logging in.
Old Reddit’s logged-out experience is a significant source of abusive scraping and automated traffic on the platform. It’s also an important interface for many long-time mods and Redditors. To strike the right balance between preserving your access to Old Reddit while preventing abusive scraping and automated traffic, over the next month we will start requiring everyone to log in.
This was posted less than a month ago, so you must be the lucky last few who can still access it. Enjoy it while you can I guess.
Evidently that’s getting the same treatment
I don’t know if you saw the news, but they will soon require accounts for old reddit
Someone wanna just make an account using a burner email and share the credentials here? Lol
Surely someone has built a site similar to xcancel but for Reddit.
Iirc there was one already? Since Old Reddit was still working, I never bothered to check, but I remember people mentioning some years back.
@enkonju@lemmy.world, I think this is it, the Nitter-like sites you mention?:
https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib-instances/blob/main/instances.mdIt was mentioned in another comment here in the replies:
https://piefed.ca/comment/5661844Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for!
Ooh, tyvm!
