Reddit Implements New Access Restrictions for Old.Reddit.com

<p>Reddit will soon restrict access to <a href="https://old.reddit.com/">Old.Reddit.com</a> to users who have logged in within the past six months. This change follows a previous requirement implemented in July that mandated users to be logged in to access Old Reddit.</p><p>The company states that these measures aim to reduce scraping and automated traffic, which they identify as a significant issue. A Reddit post from an employee, known as "judy-funnie," indicated that in the coming months, access will be limited to logged-in users who have utilized Old Reddit in the last six months, which the company estimates includes the majority of Old Reddit users.</p>
