The greatest thing about Reddit is finding information on any old topic. For today, I wanted to dig deeper into My Dinner With Andre. RIF tried to open (he’s such a trooper 😢) and when that failed I went to the browser.
I really want nothing to do with supporting that site, but I do want to read these old discussions. Any advice?
When you get to a Reddit thread via Google or other search engines you can request a cached version of it.
Just stop going to the site. It’s that simple.
uBlock Origin and uBlock extension combined give really good ad blocking alone. Combine it with a DNS solution in your router like AdGuard and you won’t have to deal with ads at all.
Simultaneously gives the middle finger to reddit because they live on ads.
https://browse.feddit.de/ This will show you every community there is on Lemmy. It won’t help with the old discussions, but may help you find some new communities you didn’t know about. I find it best to either just scroll through the list as is, or if using the search bar, to type maybe half the word I’m looking for and give it a few seconds to search.
