Reddit is ending support for RSS feeds, as the company continues tightening access to its trove of user-generated content.

Also old.reddit will become an old user thing only and you need to log in every 6 months to keep it going on the account and most likely no new accounts can be created that can access old.reddit. I guess it was always inevitable that they would do this, since they forced login to use old.reddit a month back, even if they said that old.reddit would never go anywhere. The next step will be “there are so few old.reddit users that we have decided to axe it entirely”.
That’s how they’ll kill it. I have no reason to log into old.reddit anymore because they’re removing my access point to the site (RSS).
It’s so disingenuous how these phased things can be planned out by professionals. I hate it.
“At this time.”
fuck off.
