Just switch to old.reddit.com
- Terr_ 2y agoOh, I am extremely aware. The problem is that many links (i.e. from Google) do not go there, most people won't know that's an option, and even if you do it means additional friction. (Yes, putting on a browser plugin to redirect also counts as friction. )
- jmholla 2y agoFirefox has a plugin [0] that automatically redirects you to old.reddit.com. [0]: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/old-reddit-redirect/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/old-reddit-re...
- wiether 2y agoAnother thing that Kagi can do automatically for you once you set it up. Zero friction. https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/redirects.html https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/redirects.html
- jajko 2y agoAny forum on old.reddit.com has links to threads that go to new pages, supremely annoying (I am sure there is some plugin or workaround for that but why the heck should I battle the site just to use it)
- dredmorbius 2y agoLibRedirect, browser extension: <https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/?...> I installed it a couple of years back after multiple recommendations from other HN members. It fixes more than just Reddit.
