Anyone know why sh.reddit.com exists? Is it something they plan to use in future? ATM, it just looks justlike reddit.com with a few small style differences.

For me that UI style kept appearing for me while signed out. The dedicated subdomain is news to me.

Edit: It is a read-only experience. If you try to reply or vote, you'll be asked to sign in even if you are already.

Yeah which makes me believe they're probably going to axe it

Hmm I didn't have to log in and I'm able to see everything and reply. I just upvoted a few things while on it. Maybe it only works for a subset of users?
