I’m not sure if this is new, but when I clicked on the /r/pics protest post link from the frontpage here, I was redirected to this: https://old.reddit.com/premium

I’m not sure if this is well-known or not that they’re pushing it now, but it’s the first time I’ve seen it, especially on old.reddit.

      I like that you posted a John Oliver puppy for upvotes since this hot take was so heavily downvoted.

      Seems someone wants to have their cake and eat it too.

      Fuck off spez.

      For what it’s worth I really enjoyed Lemmy a lot more than reddit for the first 1-4 days. Now it’s filled with a lot more people and the comments went from insightful paragraphs to meme-y 1-liners, but that’s not something a magazine purge can’t fix.

            I won’t even respond to your juggling with my words. I’m lazy. You’ll start taking my phrases out of context again and the discussion will devolve into an empty argument. Surely your parents didn’t let you use the internet (if you were born then) when Google turned off all third party apps from the popular Google Talk back then. You probably don’t remember when Facebook and WhatsApp did the same thing. All social networks and messengers are going through this kind of production optimization and no one is making a big deal out of it. And in conclusion: I used fediverse when it was not yet mainstream. And now I have to admire the yelling of Reddit refugees.
