Overview

Ensure Reddit always loads the old design

ℹ️ If you're wondering why the chrome extension recently requested new permissions, please see https://github.com/tom-james-watson/old-reddit-redirect/issues/117. Dislike Reddit's redesign? Old Reddit Redirect will ensure that you always load the old (old.reddit.com) design instead. Forces all reddit.com links to old.reddit.com, including navigating to the site, opening links or using old bookmarks. Unlike the account setting for turning off the design, this works regardless of whether you are logged in or not or in incognito mode. There are also a few minor quality of life improvements: - Remove the undismissable cookie banner - Prevent reddit from rendering raw image URLs as HTML - Rewrite links to galleries to the raw old reddit comments page Old Reddit Redirect is free and open source software. The code is available at https://github.com/tom-james-watson/old-reddit-redirect. Pull requests are more than welcome.

I was going to open a pull reque... Show more

I absolutely need old Reddit to enable the Reddit Enhancement Suite extension. RES settings console → Subreddits → filteReddit (filteReddit) → Filter Subreddits From (filterSubredditsFrom) According to the RESoptions.filteReddit value in a RES backup file, I have over 2000 subreddits blocked from r/all. Without the extension, I think there's a limit to the number of subreddits that you can filter (100?). Other useful RES feature Default Comment Depth For especially front page posts with ...
