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 @[email protected] 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.
Traffic is not useful for them by itself, user metadata is, and this keeps at least some of it away from them.
Usually, yes, but I’m sure they’ll be tracking traffic more than usual during the protest to see actual impact, so any traffic is counterproductive to the protest.
