Old reddit still works, images and videos are usually forced to go to new reddit. You can sometimes get around it by clicking on the comments link.

I started getting a blocking overlay telling me to download the app on new reddit and I just leave.

I encountered that blocker today, so I decided to try Safari's Hide Distracting Items (1) feature, which blocked it once and for all, which I was pretty impressed by.

By default it sends you to new ("www"), but I've found (at least on non-mobile) I can edit the URL to use "old" and works (at least for now).
