I tried it before finding imgsed but each instance had issues loading images past the first page of a user’s profile. But I will check back occasionally
lists of other alternative front-end services or projects that i (also) have not vetted:
“A web extension that redirects YouTube, Twitter, Instagram… requests to alternative privacy friendly frontends and backends.” https://libredirect.github.io/ - the list they use. https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect - extension (source)
list of some instances https://farside.link/ - (source)
a list of projects, with some other stuff on it too https://www.funkyspacemonkey.com/foss-front-ends-and-alternatives-for-twitter-instagram-reddit-youtube-and-more
Hi JB, I went down this rabbit hole last week, here is a post I made summarizing what I found, with links to the dev’s GH discussions of the different ideas for implementing the linking of communities, both within an instance or across instances, public or private, mod or user created. These features would likely be implemented separately.
There is also a link to a firefox extension that you may find useful while the dev work is ongoing.
My use case is to access text and link content on a web page anonymously over Tor without getting blocked by Cloudflare.
