There is also i.reddit.com.

Relay was my favorite while I was on Android. On iOS now, Narwhal is my go-to.
old.reddit exclusively on the web, via 'Old Reddit Redirect' extension on Firefox.

It's my biggest fear for the future of macOS development given the recent announcement of Big Sur and ARM.

I don’t find it painfully slow at all. In fact I find it faster overall when taking New features into account.
