    This does not redirect to "new" reddit. This redirects to the newest "generation 3" reddit.

    Contrary to a reply you made to a previous review, you can redirect to the older "generation 2" reddit. You need to replace the
    "www" in the URL with "new".

    Hi,

    There is no way to redirect to the previous design of the "new" Reddit as these do not offer separate distinguishing domains, the goal of the extension is to redirect any opinionated links (primarily old.) to www. - the newer design is introduced as mandated by Reddit and there is nothing I can do to help with this.

    The addon doesn't work at all for me.

    Unfortunately, not very useful. Was looking for the UI before the beta. Reddit doesn't respect user settings so this extension does NOT redirect to my preferred design.

    Hi,

    The goal of the extension as stated on its description is to redirect old.reddit.com to www.reddit.com, thus preventing the old "classic" Reddit design from ever showing.

    Which UI are you trying to get to show?

    Feel free to open a GitHub issue if you need support: https://github.com/Erisa/new-reddit-redirect/issues

    Says it "can't read or change data on this site". Doesn't work at all.

    Thank you for this. It really started to suck that so many people link directly to "old.reddit.com". This simple, lightweight Add-on fixes just that.

    Thanks for the clarification! Works now in Private Browsing Mode.

    Hi!
    You need to give extensions permission to work in Private Browsing sessions. You can see how to do this here: https://support.mozilla.org/kb/extensions-private-browsing
    I have tested and it worked in Private Browsing when I gave it permission to.
    If you're still experiencing issues, feel free to open an issue on the GitHub repo: https://github.com/Erisa/new-reddit-redirect/issues
