@L4s In mobile browser still works, but they already said that the mobile website will be killed.

And people are still unsure if they will kill old.reddit

@CMLVI @L4s Reddit gonna kill whatever makes them don't collect enough user data as they want.
My guess old.reddit will be next after killing the mobile website.

Source? Not that I don't believe it, but I've seen it thrown around quite a few times and I can't find where did they say that.

@Syrc According to one of the admins they were experimenting with removing the login in mobile websites.
That means that they're preparing for a possible future where they remove said feature.
