No cruft, no cdn domains and no javascript . I gave up on reddit a couple years back, but this might make me rethink. With so many things turning to mud, this is a good thing. What I cannot figure out is how they do the [-] show/hide stuff without javascript? Even hacker news - which is relatively lightweight - uses javascript for that. EDIT: ...and I'm back.

The Title Content tag allows you to do that iirc. I use it on my site and works fine to hide things that you can expand upon when clicked.
Isn't the correct term mirror? In any case, this is awesome. I hope the developers add a feature that lets you see removed comments, and previous edits as well. Or maybe even a "time machine" type feature. That would be cool.
showing removed comments and edits are huge privacy issue. you don't know why the comment was removed, or why it was edited.

eg: voat vs reddit when reddit started banning objectionable subs edit: it is even more true than I thought. Look at the homepage of https://voat.co at your own risk.

It’s an alternative interface to Reddit, not a new site with different moderation rules.
It is an improvement over reddit's gradually worsening interface, however it is still based on reddit's private platform. For an open source alternative on a public platform, there is matrix or member.cash
