How to Get good old 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 how to achive that you have to do :-

  1. Install Requestly Browser Extension for your browser from the official website.
  2. Navigate to HTTP Rules and Create a new rule
  3. Create a redirect rule and fill the following fields
  • Set source condition to wildcard with value *www.reddit.com*
  • Set the destination to be $1old.reddit.com/$2

Here is a screenshot of Replace Rule you need to setup

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.
