Searching old.reddit.com is getting harder. If you try to site search it on google, it gives you new reddit links.
Old seems to be blocked, as in other search engines it just gives you no results.
Luckily Kagi lets you add rewrite rules so you can filter site:reddit.com and then have reddit.com rewritten to old.reddit.com, but man reddit are fighting against people using the old site.

All you need is an account (even a banned one) that is set to old.reddit in the options. Then all the reddit links will look normal.
