Review: Bad - script does not work

§
Posted: 2023-08-15

all image links redirect to https://old.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/media/nice_hat/

more discussion about the issue here: https://github.com/tom-james-watson/old-reddit-redirect/issues/86

and here (the fix) https://old.reddit.com/r/help/comments/15kwhgy/why_is_every_image_link_i_click_on_directing_me/jvgsg29/

the reason for this particular image is because the comment ID just randomly happens to be the character string "media"

reddit has helpfully archived the post so nobody can write the solution where it is needed...

exclude https://www.reddit.com/media from rewriting

For any layman stumbling across this, you can do this by opening up the code of this script and editing in the following comment (theres already another exclude comment in there that you can place this over or under to keep things neat);

// @exclude *://www.reddit.com/media*

I made a script which can view images without having to use Reddit crappy media viewer
