Even when I set that I still get redirected to the new version. I guess I've just learned to cope with the new design and all the stuff being added into it that make it even worse. This whole obsession with reducing information density and making more space for ads and huge 'cards' or pictures is pretty much a UX anti-pattern as far as I'm concerned. It's like how 'minimalism' is considered a rich-person's hobby because everything's spacious and clean, rather than small and cosy. Web minimalism takes up more space to do less, while tending to cost a lot more in terms of bandwidth used.
