Reddit is sunsetting its live chat posts.

You can no longer make new live chat posts, existing ones will work until early 2024, Reddit says. You’ll still be able to have live chats on Reddit, just through its Discord-like chat channels — though the chat channels are still in beta and mods have to fill out a form to request access to them for their communities.
