Buying puts first thing on Monday, killing old.reddit is the nail in the coffin for many

So I can NOT access old.reddit anymore on any of my linux machines with firefox and nordvpn extension, but I can access both old and new on windows with firefox and extension, and old on android with FF mobile and nordvpn app. Haven't tried new on android for obvious reasons.

Ok, you do that, but people who don't want to get cut off from 400 million people, how do we fuck up and breakthrough reddit's anti anonimity defenses ?

Killing reddit is on the table, but is there a more practical approach ?

i dont have an account anymore but for anytime i need to view a reddit post i use RedReader. its an open-source thirdparty app thats still allowed to use reddits API for accesibility reasons.
