Old Reddit Redirect

Ensure Reddit always loads the old design

What is Old Reddit Redirect?
'Old Reddit Redirect' is a convenient Edge add-on designed for users who prefer the classic Reddit design. This add-on forces all reddit.com links to load in the old layout (old.reddit.com). Whether you're navigating the site, opening links, or using old bookmarks, you'll experience Reddit's old design. Unlike the site's account setting that turns off the new design, Old Reddit Redirect works regardless of your login status or whether you're browsing in incognito mode.

Unable to redirect when opening links to other reddit posts from a post. When opening a link to another post it is redirected to submit post page. Ongoing issue, in the past if I disabled and reenabled the extension the problem would be resolved. Now that is no longer the case. Please update ty.
