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.\"

SD (ID: 000000dc049b1c25) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/09/2023 Works great looks much better. One question; is it possible to centre the sub reddits on my screen? now its on the left side of my screen. https://i.ibb.co/nsXwqvQ/Xnip2023-06-09-15-48-13.jpg

Justin Nguyen (ID: 0000005c04f32bd9) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/04/2020 I don't know what happened to reddit with the new template, trying to read a thread and read the comments made the whole post display resize/reload. Kind of unusable. Thanks to this plugin though, I can now read a post thread without having to go back and forth with opening/closing comments threads.

1 2 (ID: 00000004b61a4469) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/24/2020 Still shows the new reddit, but has comic sans as font and other useless little changes. Useless extension.

(ID: ) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/11/2019 This makes Reddit look nicer than the redesign, closer to its original form but still modern and clean. Love it, hope it continues to be updated!
