Just replace "www" with "old". I just use a Firefox addon that does that automatically after seeing that nonsense the other day.

Didn't they have a similar glitch not too long ago?

I circumvent it with Tor Browser (Alpha) on my android mobile.

Doesn't Reddit have a version for Tor? Seems strange

[–] Aatube@kbin.social 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

does it still work?

[–] Kolli@sopuli.xyz 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Tor works.

You mean Tor as a whole or Reddit's .onion?

I daily drive FF Focus. When I encounter the discussed page, I just navigate to 'Open in..." and choose my TOR browser and open it there. VPN stays active all the time (Proton).

I'll check if it loads the page as an onion site or not.

Checked, loaded with default settings (.com) and as an .onion site. Both work.

So Tor works as a whole for me for now, it seems.

ETA: clarify - Added "(.com)"

That isn't how tor works, you're getting better anonymity but it isn't magically making a clear web site in to an onion site.

Yeah. Here's a link on the Tor forum if someone wants to try
