    Is there a way to add subreddits to the filteReddit blocklists with the click of a button?

    While browsing Popular is there a way to add subreddits to the filteReddit blocklists with the click of a button?

    e.g. I've got this little plus button to join a subreddit, but is there a RES option for adding it to filterReddit so whatever subreddit it is gets filtered out and I don't see it?

    Thanks!

    Turned on account switching in RES settings for 2 other accounts, still not showing in chrome

    Hello can anybody tell me how to account switch using RES please? I added the 2 accounts in RES settings and moved their slider switches to on, but I still don't have the option when I click on my Profile icon in Chrome on a Macbook.

    Should I switch to using Reddit in Safari instead? I also tried in old reddit on Chrome.

    Thanks very much for any replies!! Chatgpt gave up on trying to answer this question for me!

    Clicking on an image hosted on i.reddit.com redirects to a 13 year old post

    Clicking on an image or right clicking and trying to open the image in a new tab redirects to:

    Been off reddit a while, RES has changed in that time too. Is there a way to make old reddit persistent?

    I'm coming back to reddit but am noticing some changes.
    Biggest thing I've had an issue with is my settings choice to opt out of the redesign AKA use "old reddit" does not persist. Is there a setting in RES to change that? The RES settings are also more confusing than I remember them.

    Resize images on old reddit?

    What's up? Is there a way to resize/zoom in on images in a post (with multiple images), without opening the image in a new window?

    Screenshots or mock-ups

    Can't resize when the post is open (multiple images in a gallery/grid): https://imgur.com/a/n2GL6on

    Can resize here by dragging with no problem: https://imgur.com/a/jcxNZvN

    I finally fixed the "hide" links on posts by using RES and a custom CSS snippet. Now the "hide" link shows up as a consistent button to the right of each post!

    I'm someone who likes to hide posts after I see them. That way, I never have to worry about seeing the same stuff over and over when I load reddit later. With this technique, the ONLY thing I see are fresh posts.

    One problem: The "hide" link on posts is tiny, and appears in a different location under each post (depending on how many comments that post has, etc).

    After suffering with this annoyance for over 10 years, I finally fixed the issue with a custom CSS snippet inside of Reddit Enhancement Suite.

    Here is an example image: https://i.imgur.com/wRTV37D.png

    And here is the CSS code snippet, in case anyone wants to use it for their own RES config:

    /* Only apply custom hide button styling on listing pages */
    .listing-page .entry {
       position: relative;
       padding-right: 100px;
    }
    
    .listing-page .top-matter {
       margin-right: 10px;
    }
    
    .listing-page .hide-button {
       position: absolute;
       transform: translateY(-50%);
       width: 100px;
       height: 94%;
       right: 4px;
       top: 48%;
       margin-bottom: 5px;
    }
    
    .listing-page .hide-button a {
       display: flex;
       align-items: center;
       justify-content: center;
       width: 100%;
       height: 100%;
       background: #1a1a1b;
       color: #909090;
       border-radius: 3px;
       text-decoration: none;
       font-size: 14px;
       font-weight: 500;
       border: 1px solid #343536;
       transition: all 0.2s ease;
    }
    
    .listing-page .hide-button a:hover {
       background: #272729;
       color: #d7dadc;
       border-color: #d7dadc;
    }

    Where to put the CSS snippet:

    RES settings console → Appearance → Stylesheet Loader (stylesheet) → Load Stylesheets (loadStylesheets)

    Side note: I highly recommend combining this with the "Fix Hide Links" and "Hide Link Instant" feature toggles in Reddit Enhancement Suite. Clicking the "hide" link to a post should just instantly hide the post.

    any way to make expandos collapsed by default?

    would be nice not to have to keep closing them all manually

    edit:

    the expandos default to open when, coincidentally, reading the thread from the thread list via an expando lol

    if you click on a thread, they seem to start open

    example screenshot of thread list with a thread expanded: https://i.imgur.com/hCXL7y8.jpeg

    if I actually went into the thread, the expandos are closed by default

    in the options I can only toggle expando generation per-site, not change their behavior

    seems like an edge case thing lol

    Old reddit - rate limit

    Has anyone managed to get over this x-ratelimit-remaining limit on old.reddit? I've research it a lot but there's never been a fix anywhere.

    What happens is, when using old.reddit, I can only browse for a few minutes before hitting an API rate limit that then locks me out from using reddit until the rate resets - which seems to be every 10 minutes. Anytime I try to open any reddit links, I just get a reddit header and blank pages until the rate resets.

    You can see the API rate, remaining and reset, if you open up dev tools on your browser (usually Ctrl + Shift + I), swap to the Network tab, refresh the page and browse the response headers on a GET request. It will look like this:

    x-ratelimit-remaining: 93.0
    x-ratelimit-reset: 361
    x-ratelimit-used: 7

    The rate limit is 100 on old reddit, which is stupid low. You can easily hit that in just 2-3 minutes, and then gotta wait 7 minutes for a reset. It's a native reddit service so it shouldn't be relying on API calls at all, but even if, 1000 is what reddit says it should be. And yet old reddit only has 100.

    I've tried using a new account. Clearing cache/cookies. Using a different browser. Using a VPN. A combination of all these. Nothing seems to change it. New reddit continues working fine, third-party apps on iOS that rely on the API also have zero issues, it's JUST old reddit. With or without RES. It drives me insane as old with RES is the only way I can browse reddit on desktop.

    Moving from Chrome to Firefox - can I take RES with me?

    I love RES since I usually use Reddit on my laptop. I'm having problems with Chrome and their AdBlock Origin fight and want to switch to Firefox. Is there a way I can take it with me or do I have to start all over again?

    I think I hid automod somewhere at one point because it was redundant, and then it hid it everywhere. How can I restore visibility of automod comment replies?

    I checked blocked users but it doesn't show up there, so I'm not sure what setting to change or restore. My CSS doesn't appear to be altered, either, at least not specific stylesheets.

    Theme old.reddit.com to look like new.reddit.com

    Is there a style I can just add to RES to make the looks more compatible? I like the new design, but don't like the lack of enhancement features, missing RES. Especially I liked the card view in new.reddit.com.

    Is there a way to filter my saved posts/comments by subreddit?

    I've had RES in the background for ages but never really use it. I'd like to be able to sorted through my saved posts/comments by subreddit. Is this possible? If feel like it is based on the small dive into RES I've done, but I'm a bit overwhelmed by it all.

    Anyone got a sub filter list that filters all political subs?

    No idea how, but recently all my filter words got deleted :/ Anyone got a list I could use? Here is how u can share it:

    Press period to open the RES command line.
    Put in RESStorage get RESoptions.filteReddit
    From the popup, copypastathat

    Also here's how to import settings:

    Press period to open the RES command line.
    Put in RESStorage update RESoptions.filteReddit
    Copypasta the settings

    This will replace your filteReddit settings (all of them).

    What's up? When I try to show content without opening a thread I get the popup correctly as per picture: https://i.imgur.com/6tI4Nzb.png However, I can't click the button. I can't even use tab and enter/spacebar to do it with the keboard instead of the mouse

    Where does it happen? Reddit frontpage and on subreddits

    What browser extensions are installed? Oh dear.

    • Allow right-click (To let me use right click on websites that forbid using it)

    • sponsorblock for youtube (self explanatory)
    • stylus (changer css for websites, I have none for reddit)
    • ublock origin (also self explanatory)
    • view image context menu item (gives us back the option to show image without having to open it in a new tab, useful when I'm browsing po- Uh. Safe for work christian images)

    How can I have my notifications automatically updated from mobile to desktop?

    I've noticed that all of the notifications I've addressed on the standard Reddit app on my phone will still show up as unread replies/comments/messages when I open on desktop. Is there some sort of setting I can turn on/adjust to fix this?

    Are DMs one of the features that are broken within RES? I can send a DM but do not get a notification that I received one nor can I see them in my Messages tab. I can see them if I go to new.reddit.com

    I know there isn't any active development, which is very unfortunate. I wonder if I am missing a setting or if they have been disabled for old.reddit.com

    Can we filter out comments within a post?

    What's up? I'd like to filter out comment content! Just like we can filter posts or subreddits for specific content, i'd like to filter comments as well! Is that possible?

    Edit with the solution sent me: Either of these:

    comments -- RES settings console > Subreddits > filteReddit > comments

    Hide comments containing certain keywords.

    Advanced examples:

    /^/?r/w$/s hides comments which only links to a subreddit

    /(?=^.{0,40}$)(?=.cake day.)/is hides short comment (at most 40 characters) that contains cake day

    customFiltersC -- RES settings console > Subreddits > filteReddit > customFiltersC

    Hide posts based on complex custom criteria.

    This is a very advanced feature, please read the guide before asking questions.

    Reddit breaks every so often

    Hey,

    So I've been trying to figure out what's causing this issue for months now. I've tried reinstalling, went through every extension one by one, inspected with dev tools, you name it. I tried googling, but I guess the terms are too vague and there's a million different issues so if anyone had this specific one, I couldn't find it. I'm prefacing it with this, because I'm exhausted and I don't know where else to turn. You're my only hope..

    The Problem

    Anytime I browse reddit on my Macbook (2021, M1 Pro, Sequoia), using Firefox(132.0) with RES(5.24.7) enabled, after a random amount of time, usually in the span of 10 minutes, Reddit will break and I'll get a blank screen like this with only one icon loading. If I then change the www in the url to new, it loads the new design and works perfectly.

    Except of course, it's the redesigned version of reddit that is frankly unusable on a computer. After an undetermined amount of time passes(again 10-20mins), reddit returns to normal and works with RES how you would expect. This cycle repeats indefinitely and is slowly chipping away at my sanity.

    Words added to the comment and post keyword filter are affected within larger words as well

    The comment and post content filter - wherein adding certain keywords means posts and comments with those keywords don't show up - is extremely sensitive. If one of those words is found in a larger word, it removes the entire word. This occurs across the entire website. If a word is found within another, larger word, and you want to filter the smaller word, it looks for that word everywhere - not just used separately. If I were to, as a random example, filter out the word "moth" it would remove all instances of the word "mother". My browser is Firefox, by the way and my RES version is 5.24.7.

    Attempting to remove some links under posts and comments.

    There are these clickable links under every comment: https://i.imgur.com/eclAdYq.png

    "permalink source embed save save-RES report reply hide child comments"

    Is it possible to remove some of these buttons using RES? Specifically, I wanted to get rid of the "source" button so that I could CTRL+F and find the source of a video in the comments, instead of highlighting every single instance of this source button.

    But I wouldn't mind getting rid of some others that I don't use, just to remove clutter.

    Why does one account always switch to the new reddit design?

    I have a number of accounts in my account switcher.

    They are set to use the old reddit in Reddit's settings for each account. For all but one the old design setting is respected

    Why is there one account that always switches to the new design, despite being set to the old design?

    What can I do to fix it, or force it to stick to the old reddit?
