Libredirect can redirect to other front-ends automatically for you.

Have been using this for ages. Highly recommended.

Great work 🌻

Oh, very cool list (though Nitter - and probably another Twitter clients?(1) - are probably dead?

(1) Maybe not: https://github.com/j-fbriere/squawker/issues/187

Same as that happened to Bibliogram earlier – a cat-n-mouse game between Dev and API owner.

Yes… honestly, I don’t see this approach being worthwhile…

It’s better to search for full open source alternatives, front end and backend… like Lemmy/kbin for or reddit, peertube/lbry for YouTube, etc.

True, but till the transition completes (if it ever), these privacy frontends are quite handy tool to view content of those services.

I heavily use LibReddit to follow certain Subreddits, although I now mostly frequent Lemmy.

Nitter has announced a shut down (like a week ago) due to api changes

so the github is not up to date
