Summary
Analyze keywords
THIS ADD-ON WILL NO LONGER BE MAINTAINED BUT WILL REMAIN AS-IS. I RECOMMEND USING teddit.net
old.Reddit is a Firefox Add-on to restore the “old” Reddit design by forcing all Reddit links to use the https://old.reddit.com subdomain. old.Reddit has a simpler design with less advertising and removes the outbound tracking from all external links.

This Add-on was created for personal use, but published to comply with Mozilla’s guidelines. Code was mostly copied from Invidio Quick Redirect by Austin Moore and MDN Web Docs.

(For the best experience use with NoScript and uBlock).
