Reddit is one of my favorite sites, a friend introduced me to it when I sought some information about a decade ago. New Reddit - The redesign nobody asked for The push towards the new Reddit is also a cause for concern. If you read the comments from the Reddit Enhancement Suite developers, they blame the platform for being closed source and not developer-friendly. Since it is an open source project, there is also the possibility of other developers forking the add-on and taking it from there. Essentially, it depends on the developer community, with limited support from the core developers. The good news is that the add-on's developers have said they may provide patches to fix bugs, or release new options if the source code has been merged with pull requests from other users.

This means the extension will not add support for changes made to the website, or to support the redesign. It's always sad to see good software die, but it is not dead yet, RES will be in life support mode for the foreseeable future. Currently there are just 2 developers working on RES. Despite its popularity, the project did not receive much in terms of donations, which can be somewhat demotivating for a team that is working on the development of the plugin. The add-on, abbreviated as RES, has been around for a decade, and is available on all major add-on repositories including Firefox AMO, the Chrome Webstore, Opera Addons, and the Microsoft Store. The developers of the open source extension have made an announcement at the add-on's subreddit, where they say that several members of the core developer team are busy or have moved on to other projects. Why is Reddit Enhancement Suite in maintenance mode The popular plugin which made the platform usable, for users, could come to an end if things don't change. The Reddit Enhancement Suite add-on for Firefox and Chrome has entered maintenance mode.
