Reddit front-end to not support Reddit (Libreddit)

If you're like me, you want to see how Reddit looks mid-protest but don't want to give Reddit any direct web traffic or contributing to their ad revenue. That's where Libreddit comes in, see github.

Libreddit is a privacy-respecting frontend for Reddit, so you don't need to worry about supporting them.

A list of instances can be found here. If you don't care about instances, just click here.

Happy protesting.

EDIT: User @Malin@omg.qa made a point about web traffic, I adjusted above to reflect more accurately. Reddit will still be gaining web traffic, however not directly. This also means a loss of advertising revenue for Reddit. If you are going to check Reddit regardless, this is the best way to do it as far as I know.

Similarly, if you are looking for different front-ends for other services:
