As of a few minutes ago old.reddit.com now seems to requre logging in to access it.

Shame as it was still the best place to browse for info about some niche interests.

Edit: Seems like they might be testing the change as it is hit or miss at the moment.

Edit: Adding this to My flilters in uBlock Origin seems to fix the issue for the time being:

    there’s no hive mind here

    lolwut.

    I guess you say there isn’t a single hivemind, it’s hiveminds divided by instance.

      it’s hiveminds divided by instance.

      which decentralize them to their own communities but again you can at least disagree here and it will start a meaningful conversation or something that will make you think further, (I’ve had better comments that turned into conversations here than reddit), not down voted 20 times, your comment shadow banned and your opinion never seen.

      is not a community it’s a hivemind. here, there’s communities and some have hiveminds but not all of them and most of them don’t. Like you can say your new here and be welcomed not just like be shut up.

      It’s relaxing here and it feels like I could ask something and get real responses or when I get called out for not knowing something here I go and look it up. I just think this place has that feeling of I can just chill and it’s nice.
