I have a running joke that complaining about tech debt is the sign of a successful company, because it means that your primary concern isn't existential but rather paying down the debts of the past. **At the moment this looks like decommissioning the very monolith (written in Python 2 no less!) that we used to get to this point.**

you can still remove access to old.reddit and force everyone to new reddit. Sure you're not killing it and it's still there in the backend but no one can access it
