that used to be what i though would be my queue to exit...until i realised that my reddit experience was basically RIF.. so yea if they want to get rid of another great chunk of users, do get rid of old reddit, do it spez!

Haha same. "Oh I will just use old reddit" forgetting that 95% of my internet usage is mobile and old.reddit is nearly impossible to navigate on mobile. I have been 94% Lemmy since July.

I didn't think old reddit would outlast me lol

It's funny whenever this is brought up on a reddit admin post. They always come with some stat saying a tiny % of users use old.reddit.com like that means people barely use it and therefore useless. But I see a lot of active posters talk about it which means those are probably the users you want to keep around lol.
