Get old good reddit back!
Recently, Reddit has changed its user interface. The new change is not well taken by many redditors and they still prefer the old reddit look over the new one. Using simple requestly replace rule, you can redirect the new reddit look to the older one.
Here is what you have to do :-
- Install Requestly Browser Extension (Requestly is available in Chrome and Firefox)
- Click on Add Rule (+) Icon
- Select Replace Rule
- Enter Name and Description
- Replace
www.reddit.comwithold.reddit.com
- Click on Save and you are done!
Here is a screenshot of Replace Rule you need to setup
Open reddit site and you should get the old reddit interface.
Disclaimer: The above mentioned approach can work for the time till old.reddit.com is available.Once reddit decides to take away old interface available on old.reddit.com, above approach won’t work.

Just so you know, you can turn off the redesign in your reddit preferences. No need to go to all this work. And reddit isn’t going to be depreciating the current design at any point.

Odin, It’s good to know that users can change the redesign in the preferences. May be many users are not aware of it and that is why searching for such tricks.
