2020-11-17 21:44:32 +01:00
A free and open source alternative Reddit front-end focused on privacy.
Inspired by the [Nitter ](https://github.com/zedeus/nitter ) project.
* No JavaScript or ads
* All requests go through the backend, client never talks to Reddit
* Prevents Reddit from tracking your IP or JavaScript fingerprint
* Lightweight (teddit frontpage: ~30 HTTP requests with ~270 KB of data downloaded vs. Reddit frontpage: ~190 requests with ~24 MB)

2020-12-06 16:08:58 +01:00
1. It's highly recommended that you install [redis-server ](https://redis.io/ ) because it works as a cache for Reddit API calls. If you want to support videos, install [ffmpeg ](https://ffmpeg.org/ )\
2020-12-03 18:29:03 +01:00
For example:\
2020-12-06 16:10:07 +01:00
