Alien Crow is a Safari extension that supercharges Reddit with 100+ customizable tools. It does the most on the classic old.reddit.com interface, the dense, fast layout power users love, and it also cleans up and enhances modern reddit.com. Browse your way, faster, cleaner, and without the noise.
Alien Crow is an independent project. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Reddit Inc. The "Reddit" name is used here descriptively to identify the platform this extension enhances.
How it works
Install the extension, open Reddit, and Alien Crow gets to work automatically. Open the extension popup or full settings page to enable, disable, and tune any module to taste. Most features shine on the classic interface, so by default Alien Crow can take you there; turn that off any time and use it on modern Reddit instead.

Works on classic and modern
The classic layout is faster, denser, and friendlier to power users, and it is where Alien Crow goes deepest. Many tools, themes, dark mode, blocking, and cleanup, also run on the modern redesign, so you are covered wherever you browse.
