Pro-tip: use a libreddit mirror when linking to a Reddit thread - Lemmy.world

Use a libreddit mirror like https://reddit.adminforge.de [https://reddit.adminforge.de] to link to Reddit threads so that Reddit gets 0 traffic and 0 ad revenue from us opening the thread. For example, if the Reddit link is: https://old.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/14clza9/i_present_to_you_john_blobiver/ [https://old.reddit.com/r/aww/comments/14clza9/i_present_to_you_john_blobiver/] Then you simply have to replace old.reddit.com [http://old.reddit.com] by reddit.adminforge.de [http://reddit.adminforge.de] so that the link becomes: https://reddit.adminforge.de/r/aww/comments/14clza9/i_present_to_you_john_blobiver/ [https://reddit.adminforge.de/r/aww/comments/14clza9/i_present_to_you_john_blobiver/]

There is a plugin for Firefox and Chromium that has redirects for several big sites.

Is there a way to make this work on Android? I've downloaded the xpi and when I try to open it, it says I have no compatible apps. [Might make more sense when I've gotten some sleep, lol.]

No. Need to do it the hard way with individual sites.

That's what I figured, but thanks for the confirmation!

There absolutely is!

Install Kiwi Browser - it can run Chrome browser extensions.

I used the UntrackMe app which used to work like a charm but doesn't really anymore. Maybe it works on your phone!
