As of a few minutes ago old.reddit.com now seems to requre logging in to access it.

Shame as it was still the best place to browse for info about some niche interests.

Edit: Seems like they might be testing the change as it is hit or miss at the moment.

Edit: Adding this to My flilters in uBlock Origin seems to fix the issue for the time being:

It’s why I moved onto Lemmy. I can’t stand new Reddit.

    For me it was the API changes that was the final straw. 3 years ago.

    I don't use Lemmy as much as I did Reddit. But I've also never missed Reddit.
