I really like libreddit. It was very easy for me to set up and host my own instance behind a VPN. I registered a very simple .com domain of repeating letters so I can quickly just double-tap the word "reddit" on my phone's address bar and replace the word "reddit" with my libreddit's domain name and tap "go".
No more trying to type "old" over "www" or fight the "you must use the app"
- akiselev 3y agoAnyone who uses Kagi can add a rule to automatically redirect to their teddit instance or old.reddit [1]. There are also plenty of extensions for almost every browser that redirects reddit, which are easy to fork and update for a custom instance. I added a custom !r bang that uses kagi to search reddit via a lens with that redirect. Works great [1] https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/redirects.html https://help.kagi.com/kagi/features/redirects.html
- Semaphor 3y agoFor users interested in this: Go to https://kagi.com/settings?p=redirects https://kagi.com/settings?p=redirects Add these rules: ^https://reddit.com|https://old.reddit.com ^https://www.reddit.com|https://old.reddit.com Theoretically you should be able to turn it into one rule, but this worked for me, so I stopped ;)

- dexterdog 3y agoThe problem with redirectors is that it first has to go to the site you want to avoid and then it gets redirected. I always wanted something that would re-write pages as they are displayed and I couldn't find anything so I wrote my own greasemonkey script that gives me all of my searxng/teddit/piped/rimgo/wikiless/quetre/libremdb/proxitok/neuters/scribe/. It also removes most utm trackers and referral codes from urls and pulls tracking urls that put the actual url in the querystring and replaces them and will pre-redirect on most common url shorteners so when you hover on a link you are more likely to see where it's actually going. I've thought about packaging it up for more general use, but it's one of those things on the todo list.
