The Reddit thread on this was equal parts amazing and hilarious.

Real time insights from not one, but 9, redditors on the flight.

Those new obfuscated links prevent old.reddit to work.

Is there a way for you to post proper direct links?

You can modify your regex to only match when it's not a shortened url - then the short one will redirect to the real www.reddit.com address, before the redirect matches.

(Don't have the correct regex on hand right now, as I changed browsers and decided to use Old reddit redirect extension instead of scripting, but it worked in my previous browser)

My current regex looks like this:

  ^(\w*)://www.reddit.com/(?!r/[^/]*/s/|media|gallery|notifications|appeals)(.\*)
Mapping to

  $1://old.reddit.com/$2

You can click on any of the links and replace "www" in the url with "old", then you'll have things more or less like how it used to be.

to do that you have to open the link in new reddit first to expand it, then change it to old reddit. if you use a tool that automatically replaces www.reddit.com with old.reddit.com the shortened links break.

Can't you just set the old theme in your profile? That's what I do.

only if you actually log in. not everyone does.

I got permanently banned for the "Christianity is just worshipping a Jewish zombie who is his own father who will save you if you invite him into your head, symbolically drink his blood, and eat his flesh" copypasta, so not everyone can log in :)

Very interesting, but a hell of a way to dox yourself for being on the flight manifest.

The entities that have access to flight manifests have far easier ways to identify who's behind your account. It's not a threat model worth seriously considering.

Are flight manifests public?

Internal flights in New Zealand don’t need ID. So if you knew you were going to posting your terrible flight experience, you could fly under a fake name.
