Does teddit have the ability to cache and backfill reddit content in your own storage system?

#13Site is working in Incognito but not for logged-in instance for whatever that's worth. CDN issue?

#14If `old.reddit.com` goes down forever I will be very disappoint. New Reddit doesn't work with JS disabled, and I enjoy surfing with JS disabled because I enjoy the privacy benefits.
New reddit also looks like as ass on anything not mobile

I hate to be the party pooper but I think I know when they'll do it. Reddit has been desparate to IPO for years now. They're not going to do anything to shit on engagement in the run up to that, but 6 months post-IPO I think it's innevitable that there's going to be a discussion along the lines of "Why are we torturing our devs maintaining this old interface we can't monetize" and they'll finally can it. Obviously anyone who actually contributes to reddit is using old.reddit and so the quality will go off a cliff, and reddit will slowly slip down the toilet, but only after they've dumped it on the open markets.

#16if old.reddit.com gets retired definitely i'm either switching to some kind of self-hosted ui or i'm leaving reddit definitively.
no way i'm using that smoking pile of shit that's the new reddit ui.
Re: Old Reddit Is Down
#17I've been getting this too (in the UK), but if I access the horrible new interface, the same page will then load if I go via old. So if when I just clicked on this URL, it won't work: https://old.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_fo... But if I went to this one first: https://www.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183dib/kate_fo... ... THEN this one works: https://old.reddit.com/r/ukpolitics/comments/1183d…
And seems they removed from the Settings page the option to use the old version! Cant find it anywhere
It's under beta features at the bottom of the page for me, I had to untick "Default to new GUI" or something. It wasn't intuitive, but it was there.
