If you’re like me, you want to see how Reddit looks mid-protest but don’t want to give Reddit any direct web traffic or contributing to their ad revenue.
That’s where Libreddit comes in, see github.
Libreddit is a privacy-respecting frontend for Reddit, so you don’t need to worry about supporting them.
A list of instances can be found here. If you don’t care about instances, just click here.
Happy protesting.
EDIT: User @Malin@omg.qa made a point about web traffic, I adjusted above to reflect more accurately. Reddit will still be gaining web traffic, however not directly. This also means a loss of advertising revenue for Reddit. If you are going to check Reddit regardless, this is the best way to do it as far as I know.
Additionally, Libredirect also have a list of instances like farside.link, but with other types of services as well. I didnt do a thorough comparison yet. See https://github.com/libredirect/instances/blob/main/data.json. I think they also regularly update it.
You are not logged in. However you can subscribe from another Fediverse account, for example Lemmy or Mastodon. To do this, paste the following into the search field of your instance: !technology@beehaw.org
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
HHH
Similarly, if you are looking for different front-ends for other services:
https://farside.link/ has a large selection and I’ve seen librereads (https://librereads.vercel.app/) making the rounds today
