today's theme for me is alt frontends and fediverse software:

https://libredirect.github.io/ is a web extension for firefox and chrome that auto-redirects to alt frontends (as an aside, don't you find it interesting that there are redirects for tiktok and bilibili, but none for zuck's networks?)
use https://farside.link/ if you don't want to install anything (so instead of https://reddit.com/r/popular, you modify the url to https://farside.link/reddit.com/r/popular and farside redirects you to a random alt frontend instance)
last but not least, https://fedi.builders/ is a huge list of fediverse software for building a real alternative internet, because alt frontends are more of a stopgap measure, and sooner or later they will be taken down

I have decided that I will be using libreddit till the small communities I follow here get really active.

there's also troddit.com and lemmit.online (though the latter only scrapes opening posts from subreddits, comments not included) #altfrontends

Welcome to our virtual third place, The Café.

Come on in and make a new human connection over a cup of coffee (or Teh Tarik). This is a casual community, do whatever you want, share your oyen pics, your frustrations, and even organize a weekend picnic with the community. The world is your oyster.

Rules are simple, be kind and civil with each other. As with any other café, rude patrons will be kicked out.
