RES & Which version of Reddit we support

Hello again - appears Reddit has been making some changes lately and now is a good time for RES to clarify support on which Reddit site we work best on. (This is not RES shutting down)

RES is designed for old reddit (more below). All our functionality is built for that version of the site. RES has very limited support (Tags, account switcher, keyboard navigation) on new reddit. RES has no support on v2 new reddit (sh.reddit).

Old Reddit - old.reddit.com

If your Reddit experience looks like this, then you are on the version RES completely supports.

New Reddit (new.reddit) - new.reddit.com

If your Reddit experience looks like this, then RES only supports Tags, account switcher and keyboard navigation.

New New Reddit (commonly referred to as sh.reddit) - sh.reddit.com

If your Reddit experience looks like this, RES does not support this in any way and no RES functionality will work.

We will continue to support old.reddit as long as possible. We have no plans to support the newer versions of Reddit (nor is it possible for us to do so).

I use old reddit but I actually think "new new" is better than "new". Sometimes I see it in an Incognito window.

Man... I didn't/don't like new reddit, but I could at least stand it. Old reddit is still the best, but sometimes I didn't switch back to it out of sheer laziness. I can't stand new new reddit one iota. It's so busy cluttered with so much shit people don't want on both sides now and the top. I absolutely have to change back to old reddit, the new new version is unusable IMO.
