Granted.

You can get this everywhere. Just track down the "Redirector" extension and put a rule in to redirect ^(https?://)?www.reddit.com(/.*)?$ to $1old.reddit.com$2

You can also use it to automatically redirect all mobile Wikipedia links to the non-mobile site.

Can't do that on iOS at least. With the amount of reddit posts submitted here, we need a hard rule.

By the way, you can declare your preference for "old" in Reddit's settings. It has worked pretty well for me on desktop (not sure if old even exists on mobile).

Personally, I can't stand that interface, but I also use a userscript to change "old" to "www" automatically, so I guess this wouldn't really bother me. I definitely recommend using the reverse userscript if you have the reverse opinion though.

Use a browser extension.

On iOS?

Yep ios 15 has them now. Or you can use apollo and make it open there.

Oh I thought you meant you could install an old reddit redirecting extension into safari.

I ported my extension for these redirects to the new iOS Safari extension model. You can choose to also use the old i.reddit.com interface as well it that’s your thing.

javascript:(function() { window.location.href = window.location.href.replace("www.reddit", "old.reddit"); })()

Are you asking a question, or is this the petition? (the question mark threw me off)

I wouldn't mind it, but I'd be curious what happens when reddit follows the inevitable course and obsoletes that interface along with i.reddit.com

Just starting a discussion. Interestingly there’s another Reddit link on HN that doesn’t exhibit this behavior: https://www.reddit.com/r/androiddev/comments/q4nltn/ads_are_...
