no one can view old.reddit.com w/o being authorized. idk if you're aware, but it lost a lot of appeal as such. what i'm saying is, folks can view reddit.com w/o logging in, but not old.reddit.com

Thanks for the reminder. Theoretically, I know this, but it’s a really hard habit for me to drop.
you used to be able to set the redesign_optout cookie to true, but that doesnt seem to work anymore as of like a day ago for me
They just demoed an entirely new version of Old Reddit at ModWorld. Same front-end but runs on the New Reddit backend.
Is that the version that looks like old reddit, but also only loads just as few comments as new reddit, and just as few nesting layers?

That's the entire reason I use old.reddit - the New Reddit backend is a pile of unreliable dung. Just like everything that is made with GraphQL.
