  var oldReddit  = window.location.protocol + "//" + "old.reddit.com" + window.location.pathname + window.location.search + window.location.hash;
  window.location.replace (oldReddit);
  

  Edited so it still allows image preview, because old.reddit’ one is broken.

    Old Reddit blocks me because I use a vpn. You get a dumb ass message about it and can’t view anything.

  Just change your view to desktop viewer.

• DSTGU@sopuli.xyz ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  You can open as a desktop page and it works… Or you know… Old.reddit

• Nighed@sffa.community ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  What happens if you replace “www” in the URL with “old”?

  They might not have the block there

  • unconsciousvoidling@sh.itjust.works ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    VPN will be blocked.

    • Nighed@sffa.community ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      VPN?

  Fuck Reddit, delete that shit and hope for Spez to get AIDS and cancer.

• pyre@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  yeah, i mean, why do you think we’re using this platform right now

• OpenStars@discuss.online ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  They have done this for years now - this is not new.

  Lmao that’s so shameless

    And just intellectually dishonest. It makes no sense that it’s OK to view the same content in the app but not on the web.

  I didn’t read all the comments here so someone else may have suggested this but for my android when I’m met with this I can open the browser options and choose desktop site to bypass it. Still annoying but every once in a while I need info goddamnit

  trying to appeal to venture capitalists and investors by hiding the sketchy porn sites would be my guess, considering they got busted by cnn for underage stuff.

  source

  • HiddenLychee@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    You can view this content in desktop mode, it’s only on mobile outside the app that you can’t view it

  my guess is that net neutrality doesn’t extend to wireless communication.

  this is their end around by making you use their app.

    This has nothing to do with NN

  I don’t know if this addon could help?

• lud@lemm.ee ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  They have done this for a long time now.

• RandomGuy79@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  Anymore it seems to be bots posting nonsense and mods banning anyone who isn’t posting porn

    I just woke up to my phone alarm pretty bleary and started randomly scrolling. Ended up in this thread below.

    Even half asleep, none of this look like human comms to me. The whole thread is an advertisement, with undreds of unique participants.

  This is nothing new. Theyve been doing this for quite a while now.

  I pay the developer of Now for Reddit on Android $3.99 a month and it still works. Fuck reddit.

  source

  • Ghostalmedia@lemmy.world ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    To be fair, you’re not paying the developer. Your paying the developer to pay Reddit.

    source
  • moon@lemmy.cafe ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Fuck Reddit, yet you’re directly giving them money and supporting this.

    source
  • FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Yeah, Ghostal is right: You're paying reddit.

• forrgott@lemm.ee ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  I just switch to desktop mode and never had any problem…

  source
• Semi-Hemi-Demigod@kbin.social ⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  They're boosting their sign up numbers by putting porn behind it. I bet it's not even that racy, they just know that humans are motivated by something potentially titillating

  Shoving their di*ks up some things and down others
