Does anyone know of a way to prevent `old.reddit.com` from reloading every time you click/tap "back"? 1. Visit home page. 2. Click link; read. 3. Press "back".

Does anyone know of a way to prevent `old.reddit.com` from reloading every time you click/tap "back"?
1. Visit home page.
2. Click link; read.
3. Press "back".
4. The homepage takes 1-5 seconds to reload, messing up your reading position and all stories.
I just want the page to remain exactly as it was the last time I saw it...

- brtv 4y agoYou could try the browser extension "Old reddit redirect".
- corvuscorvid 4y agoReddit Enhancement Suite still works. One option is to open every link in a new tab.
- freshairr 4y agoThe "Old Reddit Redirect" extension has been stellar for me to keep it consistently on `old.reddit.com` without performance/reloading issues.
- Sohcahtoa82 4y agoYou would have to tell your browser to ignore the no-cache directive that reddit gives. Or just do what everyone else does: open links in a new tab.
