ffupdate VS dotfiles

You by no means have to use the snap. I use a shellscript: https://github.com/charmparticle/ffupdate

I prefer to just use ffupdate and tbupdate. Firefox releases binary compatible browsers for linux, why not take advantage of it?

ffupdate is a script which will update firefox, either vanilla, beta, nightly, or devedition. I made this because debian does not provide the latest firefox, and downloading and installing firefox by hand, while better than compiling from source, is tedious. This script automates the whole process of installing and updating firefox, and it can also install and update thunderbird. I have since learned that lots of other people wrote scripts to accomplish the same thing, so my scripts get lost in the shuffle in github.

I have done it through a systemd user timer+service unit, where the service runs the command and the timer activates the service at the right times.

I have something like that in my setup for redirecting twitter to nitter. Notice it is a javascript-based greasemonkey userscript which qutebrowser injects on webpages, so it goes in a different folder in the same place as the userscripts folder, just named greasemonkey. The difference is that qutebrowser userscripts are more like custom scripts or programs you can call from qutebrowser using :spawn and similar commands.

From my dotfiles ~/bin, I have a few that I use more than once every day:

I have something like that setup for twitter->nitter, just change them to youtube and invidious in both the greasemonkey script metadata and the code itself.

Now, to answer you question, I made this greasemonkey script that does something similar with twitter converting them to nitter links any time the page starts loading, just change the @match rules to www.reddit.com urls and change the parameters in the replace() to where you want to redirect, and drop it in your greasemonkey script directory.
