I still use reddit for purposes ranging from getting solutions to pastimes. Same for discord. There are a few communities on it that I need to be connected, most notably dev related.

What suggestions would you guys make? Are there any bridges/frontend I could use to get more privacy?

    i think it only halted development, not shut down. i’ve heard one of the contributors wants to revive the project though. libreddit still works fine if you self-host it and you’re the only one using it, but not on public instances. self-hosting is easy tho, just download the latest release binary and run it in a terminal or something.

      How exactly is it working without using Reddit’s API?

        i’m pretty sure reddit’s api allows a certain amount of requests from an ip address before the user has to actually pay for it. or something along the lines of that.
