alternative-frontends

Look into LibRedirect and the projects it uses and also things like youtube-dl/yt-dlp. https://libredirect.github.io/ https://libredirect.codeberg.page/ > A web extension that redirects YouTube, Instagram, Reddit, TikTok and other websites to alternative privacy-friendly frontends. https://github.com/mendel5/alternative-front-ends https://github.com/digitalblossom/alternative-frontends https://www.privacyguides.org/en/frontends/ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36146076

use alternative privacy-focused frontends: https://github.com/digitalblossom/alternative-frontends I use nitter and proxigram to query RSS feeds.

I use something similar to this, the only differences are because my use case is privacy protection and avoiding algorithmic feeds. I use the Redirector extension for Firefox so that it redirects e.g. Youtube, Twitter, and StackOverflow links to the corresponding alternative frontends Piped, Nitter, and AnonymousOverflow. You can find maintained lists [1] [2] of such projects and their instances. Mostly they are FOSS and privacy-respecting, and they have distraction-free frontends because it's a helpful coincidence of being ethical software.

There is also a privacy respecting frontend for Quora which removes the bloat https://github.com/digitalblossom/alternative-frontends#quor...

Is it just me or does Medium have really poor performance for a site that only delivers text and one image in this case? Edit: This article scores a lighthouse score of 23 out of 100, wow [1] And get this: Loading the article through Scribe, an alternative unofficial Medium frontend [3], scores 97 [2] [1] https://pagespeed.web.dev/report?url=https%3A%2F%2Fscribe.ri...

There is two alternative reddit frontends, both of which should be smaller/faster https://github.com/digitalblossom/alternative-frontends#redd...

I also made a list like this and added/removed a few. For instance there is a Medium and an Imgur frontend https://github.com/digitalblossom/alternative-frontends
