There's a Firefox extension that can do this for you, it's called "Old Reddit Redirect" ( https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/old-reddit-redirect)

You can also use Redirector, and add a rule that automatically replaces https://www.reddit.com/r/* with https://old.reddit.com/r/$1. Same effect, but you can also add rules for other redirects, too; for instance, I redirect AMP links from a local news site and a couple tech sites to the canonical link for that article. And up until they broke it, I was redirecting Slack links so I didn't get hung up on the "open in app?" nag and it would just open in the browser.
