Toggle Old Reddit Redirect Extension

Do you prefer the old style of interface for Reddit more than the new one?

Use Toggle Old Reddit Redirect to automatically redirect all Reddit URLs to the 'old.' prefix.

You can toggle the redirect on and off by clicking the toolbar icon. When it is turned back on it will automatically redirect all open tabs currently on Reddit to the 'old.' URL.

C L (ID: 000000a2a9259418) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 06/26/2023 I switched to this from similar extension that didn't let you toggle the redirect so easily, and it works great! I don't know if the author is still checking this project since it works with no issues, but if I can make a suggestion: toggling off the redirect while on a Reddit page should refresh the page with the 'old.' part of the URL removed. As it is, the user needs to remove the 'old.' part manually after toggling off the redirect if the user is already browsing Reddit.

sjain (ID: 000000c8dab03506) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/13/2020 Perfect. Works flawlessly, no issues, as intended, next to no resource usage. Exactly what I was looking for and the best one out of a sea of about 10 others of these extensions.
