    I don't want to leave a bad review or anything, i enjoyed this extension in the past but for some reason this isn't working for me. Right now it forces it to www.reddit.com instead of old, but it doesn't actually show the old interface, but the new one.

    Have you definitely granted the new permissions? If you click the extension icon, a tab will appear that will ask you to grant the permissions. It should have shown on update, too.

    Can you please update this to always force the desktop site on firefox mobile? Right now it loads the proper design but all the text is gigantic and I have to manually select "desktop site" every time.

    Addon is working to direct me to old.reddit.com, but new.reddit.com does not work, but sh.reddit.com does. The description may need to be updated.

    True! Updated, thanks.

    This is a vital app for using reddit.
    However, I suggest an Improvement: in the extensions drop down menu, I would like an ON/OFF switch.
    I often find myself wanting to browse some subs in new reddit and others in old (I like big pics and I cannot Lie) nad I need to open the complete add-ons page and scroll down to this one just to switch between old and new.
    Until implemented, this Add-on has a 4/5 from me. Excellent work, small gripe.

    the extension redirects np links to old, which can encourage brigading; apart from that it's really good

    I'd love to have the option of also automatically appending /?sort=new to the end of the url. Other than that, great job!

    What happened to the "Recommended" badge for this extension?

    It has never been a recommended extension.

    What it does have is that it has been manually security reviewed by Mozilla and as such doesn't have the "This add-on is not actively monitored for security by Mozilla. Make sure you trust it before installing." warning that you otherwise get on extensions.

    @mozilla - about time for a recommended badge, no? :D

    Works great, however, I would like to suggest disabling redirect for np links.

    Hey, you seem to have packed your entire git repo into the .xpi file. Consider packing just the bits the addon needs to function.
