You can still use old.reddit, you just need to be logged in. That said, if old.reddit ever went away altogether I would stop using it too.

Logging in is enough friction to prevent me from browsing casually. Especially when I'm on a work computer.
One benefit is my productivity had a temporary boost this week until I find another site to read.

Maybe it's for specific subs?
