Had to check some health related subreddits today and my account seems to be automatically redirecting to new reddit. To see old style reddit I’ve got to manually put in old.reddit.com as the url. Looks like the account settings under old reddit were edited and changed to preferences, and there is no longer a toggle to “opt out of redesign”. Just a field you can check to automatically redirect to new reddit, which is unchecked on my account but it’s still redirecting to it

    I use the old.reddit extension on firefox to force it. I haven’t been on there for a while now so not sure if it still works.

      Yeah, that was a necessity for browsing in private mode for…reasons.

      Fwiw, if you are still going to reddit for those…reasons, bing video search with safe search off is really very good and free of spam pop-ups and has a good integrated video player (at least with a decent ad block turned on).
