but it is so annoying to have to change 'www' to 'old' every time I want to read something

There's an add-on to fix that! So whenever you click a reddit link you are automatically redirected to old.reddit.com.

I use the Firefox one, it works great:

Apparently there is also a chrome extension but I haven't tried it so user beware:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/old-reddit-redirec...

There's also a general purpose regex based redirector if there are other sites you'd like to redirect:

I use this addon, it's great:

Supports:

Twitter → Nitter

YouTube → Invidious

Instagram → Bibliogram

Google Maps → OpenStreetMap

Reddit → Libreddit

Google → e.g. DuckDuckGo
