If you have a Reddit account no extensions are needed to fix this.
Just go to your Reddit account settings[0] and click "Opt out of the redesign" at the bottom. (Or on old Reddit you uncheck "Use new Reddit as my default experience"). Once you do this you'll now see old Reddit on www.reddit.com.

- zamadatix 5y agoThe best thing about this is other people don't need "old.reddit.com" to "new.reddit.com" redirector extensions. Reddit assumes if you put "old." or "new." then you explicitly want to override your account's preferences.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoI have done this, yet your link takes me to the new reddit. It's incredibly annoying.
- zamadatix 5y agoBecause https://reddit.com/settings https://reddit.com/settings didn't exist on old Reddit so it can't take you there. https://reddit.com/prefs https://reddit.com/prefs is similar but not actually the same page and, conversely, this old page will only load with the old interface regardless of your preference as it doesn't exist in the new interface.
- boomboomsubban 5y agoOK, with that page that's how it works. But I regularly click links and end up on new reddit while logged in. That's what's annoying.
- zerocrates 5y agoI will note that this setting occasionally "unsticks" and you start getting the new one again... I assume that's a purposeful "feature" to see if they can cleave off some people who now tolerate it or don't notice.
