After using old.reddit for ~15 years (of course back then it was called just reddit) I have to say I don’t miss it one bit. It had so many issues, but was still infinitely better than the abomination they came up with to replace it so I stuck with it. While far from perfect, I much prefer Lemmy’s UI.

With that said, having the option is great. I’m sure it’ll help a lot of people with the transition.
