In particular, posts to NSFW videos hosted on v.redd.it don’t work on the www version. The links take you to the comments page, which blocks NSFW content, and nags you to go to the app.

old.reddit.com links just work without logging in.

    Could you give an example post of what you mean? Every Post starts with “The original was posted on /r/blabla”, in which the latter links to the original, old.reddit.com link, will that work for you?

      So the CombatFootage subreddit is the one I’ve been seeing it on: https://lemmit.online/post/93740

      When I click the link on that post it goes to non-old Reddit.

      Edit: oh interesting, I see what you mean now. That’s very confusing because the r/CombatFootage link looks like something that would take you to the subreddit, not the post on old reddit. Is there any reason not to make the main post link not go to old reddit? I like to click the link directly from the post list instead of going into the post first.

        Ah, right. That’s because the link of the post itself is set to v.reddit.com (edit: meaning it presents itself like an External link in the RSS feed, rather than a reddit post) - Maybe I can create an exclusion to use the comment link for those posts instead.

        In the mean time, you could get around to it by clicking on the /r/blablabla link in the footer text.
