It's atrocious that their main interface is like this, but have you tried i.reddit.com?

Not grandparent commenter, but I don’t. I switched to the logged out, default experience recently. It’s so user hostile it’s been pretty effective at curbing my Reddit addiction and making me waste less time on that site.

old.reddit.com is usable too. But for some reason it keeps logging me out, recently.

I use old.reddit.com exclusively (automatically enforced by a browser extension[1]) and haven't experienced unexpected logouts.

you’re not alone and it’s a common complaint. along with the complaint that toggling “opt out of redesign” is constantly coming untoggled randomly and without warning. This doesn’t even happen between browser sessions where one would think a cookie got dropped, it can happen simply between pages. one moment you’re using old reddit, click a comment link, boom..you’re back on the redesign and having to change the setting again.
