How could one go to a type of “old Reddit” for the old Reddit chat since the new reddit chat seems to be garbage?

Yes please. The new chat looks cheap, terrible, and you don’t get ANY notifications of new chats or new chat requests. Reddit diarrheatically shat hard on its user base for no reason at all, aiming to “improve” something that worked just fine.

I will never understand the corporate mentality of feeling like a good idea has to be changed just because it’s been good for a while. Fuckin stupid..
