OldLander: Enhance Old Reddit on Mobile Devices
OldLander For Old Reddit is a Firefox add-on designed to improve the mobile browsing experience on the nostalgic old.reddit.com interface. It customizes the viewport for better viewing, transforms the sidebar into a retractable feature, turns clunky text into neat icons, revamps the tabs dropdown for easier navigation, disables subreddit-specific CSS for uniformity, and optimizes subreddit icons for mobile screens. With these enhancements, mobile users can enjoy the classic Reddit feel without the usual formatting frustrations.

User reviews
I love what this extension is working towards, since old.reddit is the only tolerable way to use it now, and we desperately need something to make it mobile friendly.
But it's still a little incomplete. For example, the size of the buttons on posts are adjustable, but for some reason the buttons on comments aren't, and at least for me, those buttons are unusably small.
It also slows load times down, which I suppose is expected, but it worth noting for anyone on slowler devices.
Excited to see where this goes, though.

Extremely efficient and works with minimal fuss. Makes reddit usable again after they destroyed the compact interface and third party apps. Highly recommend.
The upvote/downvote buttons work for me - although the default upvote score with this extension is 0 instead of 1, which takes a little time to get used to.
