How can it be privacy focused if it is terminating my TLS connection to Reddit? Your Reddit browsing patterns are just going to accumulate at Teddit. Given the increased importance of things like /r/wallstreetbets, this data could be pretty valuable.

It could be privacy focused by not accumulating that data.

Biggest problem with Reddit is the giant echo chamber. Feels a lot like twitter. Super aggressive replies if you’re against the grain.
It depends a lot on the subreddit. Different subreddits can have different echo chambers.
But I've had friends who insist it's a massive shit show deserving of being blocked at the router (for at least one guy).
Same can be said with Twitter, or any social network. It's all about the company you choose to keep.

matrix is for live chat. you want saidit which is an open source fork of reddit's open source code that stopped in 2017.
A great alternative on reddit, or rather reddit became an alternative to it, is Usenet. It really sucks that NNTP is disappearing and no longer being provided by ISPs.

#137For the real reddit I've just assumed that they deliberately made it unusable to force you to create an account.

#139I think I'm one of many people who spends most of their time lurking anyway.
Might still give it a go...if I wouldn't browse reddit as much with the added friction of opening links to view posts, maybe I shouldn't browse reddit as much anyway.

#140Wait, I just realized after 15 minutes browsing this website that I'm not using VPN. Reddit is blocked in my country, so Teddit will be the replacement for me. I like browsing Reddit without an account, just to read something. But I don't want to install their super big mobile app (1GB+), and I hate their lagging and weird website on mobile.
