Summary

Libreddit is a Firefox Add-on to redirect all Reddit links to use the redirecting service Farside, which in turn redirects to a Libreddit instance - An alternative private front-end to Reddit.

(On Android I recommend using RedReader.)

This Add-on was created for personal use, but published to comply with Mozilla’s guidelines. Original code was written by Austin Moore. This Add-on has no affiliation with Libreddit, any Libreddit Instance, nor Farside.
