If I had ever visited reddit without an adblocker in place, I am sure this would have upset me...

old.reddit plus ublock was the only way for me.

Old Reddit, ublock, and RES. Those were the days, before the ~~fire nation attacked~~ enshittification.

and RES

Good point, I forgot about RES. Actually I still have it installed.

Does anyone know how to setup RSS for reddit that includes the comments in the feed? As r/askhistorians is still worth checking every week of so.

Check out Geddit. It's essentially a bare bones rss made into an app. There's no logging in, but there's also no ads and some basic features. It does show the first 50 or so comments.

Cheers.

The enshitification was already happening with the page redesign, which was up years ago.

For now, yeah. They'll kill it eventually

I expect it will hang around till after they IPO (if they ever manage to) as it will see a drop in numbers that they want to keep till then.
