Redlib (Farside)

Use Redlib instead of Reddit.

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.

Extension safety

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.

Redlib (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 Browser Add-ons, 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.
