Speculation, but it’s an inevitability. It costs money to support old.reddit, which means Reddit will certainly kill it on the day that they’ll think the backlash will be small enough.
My imagination is that old.reddit.com was cheaper to serve than whatever it is they are doing now. Maybe they make less ad revenue?
