old.reddit is nice but it feels like having a conversation while on death row - still a couple of appeals pending but the endgame is not really in doubt.

The end of RedditIsFun (https://www.reddit.com/r/redditisfun/) was the end of my Reddit era - I'm still on r/askHistorians, r/askScience and a couple of niche leftovers, but I stopped moderating - the interests of the platform and its users have obviously diverged.

Not to mention, moderation tools are spread over the old site, the new site, and the mobile site in completely incongruous ways.

I'm sure there are tools I'm not even aware of as a mod, because I'm not interested in digging into two additional interfaces, when most of what I need to do is "remove post", and "ban user from subreddit".

I moderate exclusively on Old Reddit with the Moderator Toolbox extension, I can't imagine doing it any other way.

I'm a mod and I mainly use the mod interface in the Apollo app that I still use.
