You can still get to the compact interface with /.i on the end of the URL. But they are making it harder and harder to not use their terrible default interface, which is clearly focused on ad delivery not UX.
Comment on ‘Front page of the internet’: how social media’s biggest user protest rocked Reddit
QubaXR@lemmy.world 4 months agoYup. Both the desktop website and the official app are garbage UX. With no third party app option, I could not use Reddit even if I wanted to.

None of the Reddit interfaces were ever any good IMHO. The service was only usable thanks to third party readers that redefined its user experience. Without them it’s about as pleasant as gopher.

Oh compact was just right for me. Fast and mobile friendly and not loads of space taken by pictures.

RedReader on mobile still works. You can find it in the fdroid app store. There’s also rtv for a terminal reddit client on the desktop.

Wait, how is it still working?

old.reddit is still usable, but I’ve also pretty much stopped using reddit since the blackout.
