Pre-IPO Reddit lets ads be dressed up as promoted user posts
As FTC starts asking questions about that mega-deal with Google to train AI
Well, look at that. Ads disguised as posts.
You're viewing a single thread.
if you replace the www.reddit part of the link with farside.link/libreddit it will send you to a random frontend instance.
this means no ads, no js, no trackers, and probably none of this.
to do this you'll need a browser extension. try this one: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/redirector/ (couldn't find this one for chrome but you can choose another)
if you used the extension i gave you you can import below as a plaintext in the settings. ::: spoiler redirect.txt
