Use whatever other DAW you like, and access the Reason Devices via the Reason Rack Plug-in.
Sitting on Reason "waiting for sequencer updates" hasn't been a thing since the Reason Rack Plug-in came into being. Stop waiting and just use a different DAW that you like.
Good candidates are those with relatively deep feature sets that have hte most value added to them by the MIDI Processors and Devices in Reason. Reaper, Cakewalk, Pro Tools, Samplitude Pro X, etc.
But DAWs like Logic, Cubase, Digital Performer, Ableton Live, Bitwig, FL Studio, etc. also work exceedingly well (and are probably better than some of the others... you just get a bit more redundancy with the Reason Core Stuff due to what they bundle/include and their base feature sets).
