Libreddit
An alternative private front-end to Reddit
Libre + Reddit = Libreddit
- 🚀 Fast: written in Rust for blazing fast speeds and safety
- ☁️ Light: no javascript, no ads, no tracking
- 🕵 Private: all requests are proxied through the server, including media
- 🔒 Safe: does not rely on Reddit's OAuth-requiring APIs
- 📱 Responsive: works great on mobile!
Think Invidious but for Reddit. Watch your cat videos without being watched.
