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:

My main (and it's only minor) problem with Lemmy, and I guess Reddit is the same, is when people post the same story or link to like 4 separate communities, splitting the discussion. People interested in one of the communities are likely to be subscribed to the others anyway, so it clutters up the feed as well.
