I'm still using old.reddit.com instead of the modern rework because the old version is fully compatible with Vim browser plugins while the new one has all kinds of issues with keyboard-focused usage.
This is a frequent symptom on websites that consist of more JS than HTML: they often won't even let you scroll the page without a mouse, let alone have UI that's visible to plugins(I never tried it, but I'd bet these same sites would also appear basically empty to screen readers etc.).
- Scoundreller 7y agoOld.reddit.com is fine until you follow someone’s link on reddit and it takes you back to the new reddit. Argh.
- antisemiotic 7y agoThere are extensions (at least for Firefox, but I think Chrome has those too) to always redirect to old reddit.
- awake 7y agoYou can also log in and set your preference to old reddit
- dredmorbius 7y agoThat does not work in my experience.
