I used the chat feature semi-regularly to chat with people about more private stuff. It was mostly about exchanging in creative endeavours, sharing what we had before posting it to Reddit.

So I am a bit moved now that they want to delete it.

But I also hated Reddit’s implementation of it. Under certain circumstances it wouldn’t load older messages and worst of all it was only available on the official app, not even their mobile web app. So continuing my chats forced me to use my desktop, or to try out the app which was horrible.

At this point, let Reddit burn in their mistakes and hopefully the others will make it better.
