  • libreddit

    Private front-end for Reddit

  • Puffer

    Packet level firewall for Android (by jawline)

  • It is possible with SNI blocking to adblock on Android, even when apps use custom DNS revolvers (though not as effective). I built https://github.com/jawline/Puffer a while ago but haven't had the time to improve it much past proof of concept.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • browser_extension

    A browser extension that redirects popular sites to alternative privacy friendly frontends

  • Might be worth checking out libredirect [1] which I use on desktop and mobile to automatically redirect reddit links to privacy-respecting front-ends like libreddit and teddit. Also since I have it on my default browser on Android, even if I open a reddit link from, say, a hackernews app, the popup webview will use my default brower which will in turn automatically redirect to libreddit/teddit. I never have to worry about seeing reddit's annoying web app, never have to worry about giving reddit my data.

    (old.reddit.com still does give reddit data, and from my experience they do a lot of tracking IPs and working with google and traffic correlation to figure out what stuff you browse. However if you still prefer old reddit, libredirect does provide an option to automatically redirect to old.reddit.com instead of libreddit or teddit)
