Old Reddit Redirect

I like it when it works. But it has a semi-frequent bug of sometimes getting stuck where it will show you a subreddit/post as not logged in, then you try to click log-in and reddit will say "you are already logged in, redirecting you" and then shows the page again, still as not logged in - then the cycle just repeats until you visit some other subreddit or something when it finally shows you a page with you logged in, IDK I haven't fully figured it out. But I am going to go looking for anothe... Show more

Throw that new Reddit layout in the garbage and bring back the classic

works perfectly! Thanks!

Review edit: Reddit has broken the use case below and has nothing to do with the extension itself. This extension seems to have partially broken as of October 2nd, 2024.

Fantastic extension that works even in incognito mode. Couldn't use Reddit without it. Devs are quick to respond if you have an issue as well.

Stopped working today, gives this error "upstream connect error or disconnect/reset before headers. reset reason: connection failure"

Seems to have stopped working. Was good while it lasted but seems the new UI is being forced on everyone now.

It should still be working fine - I haven't received any other reports of it not working and it's all good on my end. If you are having issues, can you please report a bug on our issue tracker so we can look into it: https://github.com/tom-james-watson/old-reddit-redirect/issues
