2024-09-02 cl***** This extension will work but you have to do a little trick first. There's a simple fix: create a subreddit. It can be private and something that no one ever has to see or that you ever have to use. Just the fact that it exists allows you to access the older site layout that you may've been using for the last 8 years. Just click on "Create a community" on the left of the screen, choose a name (I simply used my username) and description, pick any 3 topics (doesn't matter, since the sub will be private), then choose "Private" and create. From now on, like before, make sure that your URLs contain "new.reddit.com" instead of "www.reddit.com" which is what this extension does for you.

2024-08-05 Ma***** Unfortunately the extension no longer works and therefore the pre-2024 UI cannot be restored. This really annoys me
