Features & Capabilities

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.

Is Libreddit (Farside) Safe?

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Libreddit (Farside) requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Libreddit (Farside) may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
