Reddit signals ominous upcoming "changes” for old.reddit.com

Reddit says the beloved site is used for some "bad behavior."

As of a few minutes ago old.reddit.com now seems to requre logging in to access it.

Shame as it was still the best place to browse for info about some niche interests.

Edit: Seems like they might be testing the change as it is hit or miss at the moment.

Edit: Adding this to My flilters in uBlock Origin seems to fix the issue for the time being:

    I think I went to Reddit at first because of what it was, I watched a lot of Reddit “reading” videos for a while so decided to join myself, but the Reddit I wanted to join was already gone by the time I actually did join, then it got worse until I didn’t want to take it anymore, the AI got added, then the Games, that was the final straw I think.
