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:

I'm sick of reddit. I've been banned three times for calling out Nazis. Nazis don't get banned though

    Same. I said "fuck republicans" and got 'permanently suspended'... which is just the dumbest thing in itself

    "Fuck Republicans! Come enjoy of my disaster of a human body, conservative ladies! Runners up will be invited to my pool of hand stuff volunteering until my double carpal tunnel surgery someday.

    I criticized ICE, and about 12 hours later I was met with a "Blocked by network security" page. The only option was to appeal to support, who wanted an explanation. I could still access my user settings so I went straight to the account deletion option.

    I got banned for saying something about Musk during the height of the DOGE circus. I don't know what I said exactly because they delete the comment and then ban you.

    I think I said I'd like to see him test his rocket and go to Mars. Which, I guess implies,.. something.
