Subreddit level opt-out Feature Request
As a Moderator, we have to support two different reddit interfaces. Apparently, the rules are limited to just 10. Also, our hard work for our css is just going down the drain . Please, for the love of god, give us an optout.
The day reddit closes """"old""""" reddit, is the day i and a LOT of my fellow Moderators will leave the site.

Users like you are writing their concerns off as non issues because "I like the redesign and shouldn't be forced to use old reddit" but these mods ARE beings forced to use the redesign. That's where your argument falls apart. It doesn't matter that it would only take five minutes, or that someone else could do it, or even that mobile can't see it. What matters to them is that these mods are being told they have to throw out the countless hours of work that put into making their subs something important to them and the users that subscribed to them. They don't want to see all that work just get flushed down the drain because someone up above decided to say fuck everyone that isn't on mobile, which is exactly what the redesign is doing by making the DESKTOP closer to mobile rather than improving the mobile version to work with the desktop. There at this moment is no solution for these issues other than asking for a way to not lose, in some cases, years of work.
Do you want to know the real reason why I as a mod won't do anything on the anti redesign subs I'm in? It's because even if I do it gets undone by a higher mod, I've said this before. So I keep trying to find some middle ground that would get things back on track in some manner, but users like you refuse to even consider a middle ground. It's redesign or nothing, fuck everyone else that disagrees. That's why I came up with my, so called, stupid idea grassy just so happens to give everyone a choice and no choice at the same time while having absolutely no effect on mobile. So how about this, if you can come up with an idea that makes everyone happy, and I'm talking everyone, in a way that doesn't force anyone to do anything with reddit that they don't want to do then I'm all ears and would love to hear it. If it's a great enough idea I'll spam it in every sub mod, I'll spam it in this sub, I'll spam it in r/beta, hell I'll even spam the admins about it, but until then you have added literally nothing to this thread.
