Could you update this addon? It currently doesn't work at all for me. #1

Hi @Oneechan69,

It works for me.

Could you please share information about your operating system, browser and browser version?

Oneechan69 commented 4 months ago

@Erisa I installed it in a blank Firefox instance, then went to reddit.com and it goes to the 2023-24 redesign. I'm on macOS 14.4.1 and Firefox 125.0.3.

Hi @Oneechan69, that behaviour is working as expected.

There is no way to redirect to the previous design of the "new" Reddit as these do not offer separate distinguishing domains, the goal of the extension is to redirect any opinionated links (primarily old.) to www. - the newer design is introduced as mandated by Reddit and there is nothing I can do to help with this. Notably the extensions purpose or mission has not changed since its initial creation several years ago.

Please direct your complaints to Reddit, thank you!

@Erisa The domains for the 2018 and 2023 designs are https://new.reddit.com and https://sh.reddit.com respecitvely.

@Oneechan69 thanks but not sure I understand, when I visit new.reddit.com with no extensions I get redirected to www. which loads the 2023 design of Reddit. Are you seeing something different?

I tried it without a login and it redirects. Were u logged in?
