> This isn't the case for either old.reddit.com or the even lighter alternative i.reddit.com, for which reverts back to www keep occurring.

FWIW if you're logged in you can go to your profile and make it so www.reddit.com just shows old reddit

Trust me, I've tried that. It doesn't work.

Again: teddit.net solves that problem. RELIABLY

There's the added bonus that I can't vote or comment. Yes, bonus.

I'm not sure why it doesn't work for you, but it's been working reliably for me ever since the redesign was introduced.

My hack is to:

1. Not log in to Reddit unless I must.

2. To use old.reddit.com exclusively. Or another which won't revert to www.reddit.com

The mechanism you describe fails on both counts.
