I use SearxNG’s redirect functionality to redirect all reddit links in the search results to a Redlib instance. It won’t affect URL bar links but that’s okay, I don’t directly go to Reddit anymore.
You might appreciate Farside.link which catalogues all kinds of privacy-protecting front ends, and lets you bookmark a randomizer to automatically choose one for any service.
If you’re just lurking, RDX is a great alternative. An actual thick client and not a web app. I don’t know how the dev gets it to work but it’s great for when I just want to check my city’s sub.
These days if I wanna check reddit on my phone I just navigate to old.reddit on my phone’s browser.
They’re starting to break functionality though. Sometimes old Reddit doesn’t load comments or work at all on specific subreddits.
redlib is also a pretty good front end: https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib
safereddit.com is one i used from time to time. there’s a bunch of other instances, as well

I use Stealth for any niche groups over there that I still follow, and then if I really want to comment, I’ll login with old.reddit on my browser.

RIP I have an iPhone so I don’t get to use anything cool
Think about that next time you choose a phone.
For iOS just use this safari extension and access it through the browser.
The experience itself is pretty good.
use rdx? https://overdevs.com/.rdx
