                Simple Reddit ʕ•ᴥ•ʔ

Cleans up the new reddit layout, makes it more compact - and closer to how the old reddit layout looked - but while keeping the new reddit features. That's all.

It's a little bit like the Reddit Enhancement Suite, just for the new design. And simpler.

Note : Simple Reddit is not officially affiliated with Reddit.

Justin Nguyen December 4th, 2020

I don't know what happened to reddit with the new template, trying to read a thread and read the comments made the whole post display resize/reload. Kind of unusable. Thanks to this plugin though, I can now read a post thread without having to go back and forth with opening/closing comments threads.

This makes Reddit look nicer than the redesign, closer to its original form but still modern and clean. Love it, hope it continues to be updated!
