Reddit UI Redirector Firefox

Reddit UI Redirector

By: Andro
Redirects reddit.com to new.reddit.com

Features & Capabilities

A lightweight addon that simply redirects reddit.com to new.reddit.com. Forcing new.reddit to append to every URL within Reddit to ensure only the "New" Reddit layout is used as you browse Reddit.com.

UPDATE Reddit decided to remove new.reddit.com so this or any extensions will not work anymore as that UI does not exist anymore. More can been seen here: https://www.reddit.com/r/help/comments/1ehmgmr/next_steps_for_newredditcom/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 I suggest replying to that post letting the admins know we are not happy with the change!

Due to this. This extension is no longer in development.
