I just need to visit a couple subreddits. Sadly, there's no alternate communities outside of reddit.

This may sound like a cliche, but, time to create your own.

I still use old.reddit on my computer for some niche subreddits. My phone, I've cut Reddit out. One day, I'm sure they'll kill old.reddit

Im certain they will too. I exclusively used RiF and old.reddit for around 10 years (i guess before it was old reddit). I had no idea there were avatars for the longest time. All its gonna take is one or two more features before they say we "cant engage with the fun of reddit enough" and they drop old reddit.
