I’m actually happy about how garbage reddit is. I considered installing a redirect plugin to send me to the old.reddit subdomain[1], but ultimately decided I shouldn’t encourage myself to use Reddit, having it load into that dumpster fire of a front end has really helped discourage me from using or interacting with it. I can happily report my reddit usage is at an all time low!

[1] fun fact, you can shorten this to “ol.reddit.com” which is nice because it only requires one hand to touch type “ol.” and get an autocompletion. I always thought reddit was a great name because for right handed users, “redd” could be typed with the hand that would typically stay on the keyboard and would 100% get an autocompletion. Alas, most users are now on mobile.

I use RES[1] to force the old layout (along with many other things).

Where is that setting in res? I was looking but could not find it.
