I didn’t want it but now that it’s here and many people did message me (usually asking for something) I would feel upset that all that history is lost.
Thank god I made a data request last month asking for everything in my account. I have all my 10+ years of Reddit history backed up elsewhere.
I did use it a few times, but only as a 1-to-1 message. The inbox was more efficient anyway.
I think they had subreddit general chat but I’ve never used that.
I’ve seen it used for live events (think press releases or keynotes), which I think is probably the best use case for it. As a general chat platform it’s pretty useless.
No one wanted chat. Does anyone use chat?
I lived on old reddit. Chat and these other useless features just did not exist for me.
Chat is available on old.reddit. It’s still pretty useless though.
I kept finding chats I didn’t notice after months or years. It just didn’t seem to fit well in that platform

I’d forget that it existed until sometimes I’d see annoying notifications that wouldn’t go away in browser.

I didn’t even know chat existed until a few months ago when I logged in from a new browser that didn’t have RES.
