Thanks for making this. It's useful every time I click a new reddit link.
There's a rich ecosystem of incredible third party reddit apps on android, as an alternative. Reddit is really unpleasant to use on the mobile web, even without the dark patterns.
The plug-in redirects to old Reddit automatically when following links, so if it worked for you that would not be an issue.
Uniqueness of browser plugins creates unique signature specific to user.
This together with RES and Shine makes it really pleasant actually. In fact, I think you don't need to visit old.reddit.com for RES/Shine to work. CPU/MEM usage is off the charts though (has gotten much better).
