YSK: You can use Libreddit instead of Reddit.com for more privacy and no ads - Feddit

The developer wrote a good post on Reddit [https://libreddit.de/r/PrivacyGuides/comments/r4jyhi/libreddit_private_frontend_for_reddit/], which I will mainly quote here: 10 second pitch: Libreddit is a portmanteau of “libre” (meaning freedom) and “Reddit”. It is a private front-end like Invidious but for Reddit. Browse the coldest takes of r/unpopularopinion without being tracked. 🚀 Fast: written in Rust for blazing fast speeds and memory safety ☁️ Light: no JavaScript, no ads, no tracking, no bloat 🕵 Private: all requests are proxied through the server, including media 🔒 Secure: strong Content Security Policy prevents browser requests to Reddit How does Libreddit enhance my privacy? Reddit tracks a lot of data [https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit#reddit] but Libreddit logs nothing and uses no JavaScript by default so client-side monitoring isn’t possible. There are 35 community-hosted instances that can be used to access Libreddit; one can spread their traffic across multiple for even more privacy. 7 of our instances are .onion hidden services so you can browse Libreddit using Tor. Can I use it to login to Reddit? Libreddit doesn’t currently support logins but using cookies, users can subscribe to subreddits, follow users, and import their subscriptions from Reddit [https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit/wiki/Import-Reddit-Subscriptions]. Does Libreddit have any features not offered by Reddit? On top of the minimalist design, Libreddit is very customizable with: - 10 themes to choose from - A toggle to enable Wide UI (for those of you who like to maximize your screen space) - Filters so you can hide certain subreddits or users from your feeds Instances: [https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit-instances/blob/master/instances.md [https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit-instances/blob/master/instances.md]](up-to-date table of instances). Not every instance is equally fast for you, similar to Lemmy. Try out a few. GitHub: https://github.com/spikecodes/libreddit For PC, I recommend the add-on LibRedirect [https://libredirect.github.io/index.html], which automatically converts a Reddit link to a Libreddit link. This way, Reddit doesn’t get any traffic from you, even if you want to access the page via a Google search.
