Comment on Pre-IPO Reddit lets ads be dressed up as promoted user posts

if you replace the www.reddit part of the link with farside.link/libreddit it will send you to a random frontend instance.
this means no ads, no js, no trackers, and probably none of this.
to do this you’ll need a browser extension. try this one: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/…/redirector/ (couldn’t find this one for chrome but you can choose another)
if you used the extension i gave you you can import below as a plaintext in the settings.
