I have a list with sublists list = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. I would like to reverse every other sublist, starting from the second one. The result would look like result = 1, 2, 4, 3, 5, 6, 8, 7. What would be a simple way to do this?

Use MapAt, which accepts the same syntax as Part:
MapAt[Reverse, list, 2 ;; ;; 2]
(* 1, 2, 4, 3, 5, 6, 8, 7 *)

Using Part and Span might not seem overly elegant but it is fast:
list = RandomReal[-1, 1, 100000, 10];
a = MapAt[Reverse, list, 2 ;; ;; 2]; // RepeatedTiming // First
b = ReplacePart[list, i_?EvenQ :> Reverse@list[[i]]]; // RepeatedTiming // First
c = Module[result = list,
result[[2 ;; ;; 2]] = list[[2 ;; ;; 2, -1 ;; 1 ;; -1]];
result
]; // RepeatedTiming // First
a == b == c
