Extension summary

CUSTOMIZE YOUR REDDIT EXPERIENCE SHINE for Reddit lets you choose layout according to your liking. At a glance there are three layout styles: • List - most similar to original Reddit, but with modern feel • Reader - two column layout, much like Google Reader or Gmail, where you can see the list on one side and content with comments on the other • Grid - which best suites subreddits that contain a lot of pictures. On top of it, every type of content you can view and comment without opening new tabs like in old Reddit design and in List/Reader mode, even without opening popups like in new Reddit design.

LIST OF FEATURES Here’s a list of current most important features in SHINE: • Modern design, inspired by Google’s Material Design • Themes - over 10 themes to choose from • Colours - pick one from 13 colour accents • Icons for different post types - you can change the look of post icons • Sticky sidebar - never lose the sidebar again • Keyboard shortcuts to navigate comments, posts, upvote and downvote, search and more

The only thing this extension does is force reddit.com to load as old.reddit.com. That's it. There are no options to do anything else.

great UI but DARK MODE PLZ!!!
by Mikey, 2021-07-20

Wonderful extension for reddit. Probably the best one for Chrome based web browsers, if we're being honest. SHINE also helped me resolve a problem with reddit itself: It's SLOW. Even with RES, in fact, RES made it even slower. It was constantly lagging scrolling through reddit, clicking on a post would sometimes take upwards of 10 seconds to load the post. Insane! SHINE fixes all of this and adds a beautiful user experience to boot. You just can't go wrong with this extension if you browse reddit often.
