View submission: Making Redditing Simpler
Unfortunately you are in a small minority of users. Only about 5% of pageviews last month came from Old Reddit in one of my subreddits.

When a company actively decides they want to kill something in a way that minimizes backlash, often they make it harder and harder to find, then justify it with "it had really low engagement." No shit it did, that was intentional.

I suspect those numbers are low simply because most users these days don't even know old.reddit exists as an option. I'd bet more people would adopt it if it were actually advertised.

It wouldn't surprise me if they flat out removed old.reddit because of low usage and in order to "free up resources". I've seen quite a few websites pull that shit over the years.
