> Old Reddit is posts from before something like 2009

No, it works for the entire post database. If you have a login and go to the main old.reddit.com page you'll see current posts.

Edit: Er, that's how it used to be. Looks like it just redirects to the main domain now. RIP.

Still works for me (although I always use it logged in). If they kill old.reddit, I may finally abandon the site. It's been slowly losing value for a long time and being forced to use the hot garbage of the new UI might be my tipping point.

All of the redlib instances still work, and I believe they use the .json endpoint off of old.

What? No this is completely incorrect. old.reddit is a way of viewing reddit with the old (in my opinion far superior) UI, but includes new posts and comments. As for whether or not it requires an account, that appears to be something that they are A/B testing.
