Simple Reddit Extension

Simple Reddit ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

Cleans up the new reddit layout, makes it more compact - and closer to how the old reddit layout looked - but while keeping the new reddit features. That's all.

It's a little bit like the Reddit Enhancement Suite, just for the new design. And simpler.

Note : Simple Reddit is not officially affiliated with Reddit.

Some feedback from users : (。◕‿◕。)

♥ \"The blue makes me feel all fuzzy inside. Thank you sir.\"
♥ \"woah your tweaks are really nice. So much less cluttered. I think the redesign would be a lot more popular if it looked like this.\"
