@AOU is this in the right place???
Just putting this here for posterity.
Reddit started what Twitter ramped up and what Facebook did further. Use the old.reddit.com domain to view as many comments as possible.
Maybe I'll make it with a drop-down to select the comment sorting. Whatever.
I don't know enough about Tampermonkey to muck with the headers. This is just a first version. I just got tired of the ww.reddit.com hiding of all comments with infinite scroll.
// ==UserScript==

// [@version](/u/version) 0.1
// [@description](/u/description) Redirect reddit links to the old domain in order to see all comments and disable certain stylings

(function() {
'use strict';
var reg = new RegExp('(.*)://www.reddit.com/(.*)');
if (reg.test(document.URL))
{
//alert(document.URL);
var newURL = 'https://old.reddit.com/'+window.location.pathname;
window.location.href = newURL;
}
})();
tHIS DOESN'T SWITCH THE LINKS IN ANY SITES; IT JUST REDIRECTS TO THE OLD.REDDIT.COM DOMAIN WHEN WWW.REDDIT.COM IS LOADED. wON'T MESS WITH THE IMAGES, EITHER, SINCE IT DEALS WITH THE WINDOw (crap caps lock was on) on just the www subdomain.
tested in current version 4.14

next up figure out how to use Tampermonkey to open Private Window on certain domains to circumvent the splash screen on Twitter after scrolling down to the relevant tweets limit.
