Just curious, because typing Reddit in at the end of searches magically makes the exact niche result you need appear, how do you open a post in old Reddit?

There are FF addons that can do that for you. Otherwise you have to manually change the www into old.

Oh really that easy

Someone else mentioned front ends to limit tracking and stuff so imma check that out too

I'd be more likely to recommend you install a plugin like libredirect and use an alternative frontend to Reddit like libreddit. Get visibility into posts, spread your load across three alternative front end instances to avoid rate limiting, starve reddit of the tracking data they're trying to direct people to their preferred front end for

Other than libreddit got any recommendations for the other two?

I just pick the fastest three working libreddit instances once pinged by libredirect
