No, they’re two different communication methods. To be fair, it does seem weird to continue maintaining two forms of DM, but also I liked the old school DM style vs the newer realtime message style, personally. I guess I like the distance from strangers.

Also DMs work on both new & old Reddit. Chat only works on new Reddit.
(Unless something has changed recently.)
Oh I get it now
When new reddit came out they said new features would not be back ported. I saw that as a feature.
That’s probably a feature. They don’t want old reddit to exist.
Oh, and some open source app you build by yourself and put your API key in only work with DM because those app is no longer maintained.
Speaking of API, I don’t think there’s one for the chat, so removing DMs will greatly reduce the capabilities of RemindMeBot etc.
