Use Redlib instead of Reddit.

Features & Capabilities

Redlib (Farside) is a Firefox add-on that automatically redirects all Reddit links through Farside, a redirecting service, to a Redlib instance — an alternative, privacy-focused front-end to Reddit inspired by Libreddit.

Designed initially for personal use and released to comply with Mozilla's guidelines, this add-on enhances your Reddit browsing experience by routing through a private front-end. It offers increased privacy and an alternative interface to the traditional Reddit website, without any affiliation with Reddit, Redlib instances, or Farside services.

Great thanks! Reddit blocks many VPN IP addresses. So, "RedLib" really helps to overpass it!!!

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.
