If they drop old.reddit.com then it would be, but I stand by the statement that the landscape has changed. Yes people will leave (like me), but it won't impact their overall user base numbers. I think this is a stupid move as a user, but if I was a reddit shareholder I wouldn't be criticizing spez just yet.
I agree with you. Look at Facebook and Twitter. We all acknowledge that they're shitholes, but they're also still incredibly popular. Twitter might die eventually, just because Musk is uniquely stupid, but I don't think anything about the reddit situation will end with advertisers pulling out.
digg 4.0 was also a pivot to a different format. This isn't that.
