#142Earlier quoted context omitted.
It was mentioned somewhere it's not going to be killed anytime soon, similar to how i.reddit.com is still working. But it also won't get updates so you may get a "degraded" experience. A good example of this is GitHub-style ``` ... ``` codeblocks, which don't work on old.reddit.com, but do in the new UI.
Yeah, that's how I imagine it will play out. Eventually there will be so many of those things that don't work on the old site that they will "have to" kill it for our sake :)
Loads of things don't work on i.reddit.com, and that's still alive. Past record gives us no hard guarantees for the future, but thus far Reddit's record is pretty good on this.

#143Mobile is just the name of the game. I don't get it -- I can't stand browsing the web on mobile versus a laptop -- but when you look at the metrics, it's hard to argue against optimizing for that channel.
There is a grocery chain store in my country and since ordering food is kind of hot this year, they started accepting orders and deliver groceries. Via an app. They have an app for this. You can't order anything through their website, you have to use your tiny surveillance rectangle for that.
That's an awful trend.
