old.reddit.comis unaffectedThe few times I click a link to a Reddit post I immediately change www to old. That new monstrosity is unusable.
Try https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/old-reddit-redirect/
For more general usage, you can try Redirector.
You just add a rule like
Redirect: https://www.reddit.com/*
To: https://old.reddit.com/$1
It allows to redirect to alternative frontends, and redirect other webs like YouTube too :)
