This automatically redirects Reddit links to their archived versions
There’s also this, one for Firefox, but if you use Firefox on Android, you’ll need to get Firefox Nightly (Google Play)
Or this if you use F-droid.
It’s based on Firefox and allows you to install addons without using the Nightly version
Does that work with Mull?
Yes. Just like with Fennec F-Droid and Firefox Nightly, you can install any extension by following these steps: https://www.ghacks.net/2020/10/01/you-can-now-install-any-add-on-in-firefox-nightly-for-android-but-it-is-complicated/

press
shift
+ctrl

or click onarchive
if you use google.Nice try. I’ve seen TV shows. This is to get into the C.I.A. workframe mastercode :)
Seriously tho, where do I put this?
user script manager like this one
For anyone wondering, this is a tampermonkey/violentmonkey script.
It’s this actually true though? I always had to add Reddit at the end of the search query as it always gave me some shit websites as sources otherwise.
Removed by mod
Yet you give in out of desperation only to find the subreddit is private.
Cached view works (for now)
As it should be
This happened to me more than once during the first day of the blackout ;_;
If I need info, and info is there, I click.
but then it went private
The fact that I’m here shows what I believe in, but I’m too old to be disturbed by the fact Reddit gets an occasional click from me.
Same. There’s a massive difference in clicking for info, and clicking for entertainment.

Since I left Reddit, I’ve had a few searches yield very helpful Reddit results. I read them and move on. I’m running an adblocker and I’m not providing value by commenting. I see no problem with this.

And this means we’re not giving them clicks or anything? It’s basically as if we’ve never visited in the first place?
I get that “no ads no tracking”, but does the proxy give them a view? I don’t want them to get any traffic from me, proxy or otherwise.
Thanks for sharing

I finished watching Beau Is Afraid and immediately looked up the reddit reaction to make sure I wasn’t nuts thinking it was awful.
I do that with lots of movies tbh, reddit had kinda taken over the imdb forums. Waiting to see if kbin has the same effect.
Beau is afraid fucking sucks btw
That sucks to hear. Joaquin Phoenix is great in practically everything and Ari Aster crushed it with Hereditary.
Maybe it’s a movie that works better on paper than celluloid.
The first third is cool and interesting. But jfc we don’t need a three hour movie of pretentious jerking off of Ari Aster’s mother issues.
Total misfire imo. It’s like he wanted to ape charlie Kaufman’s neurosis without putting in the work of writing a cogent screenplay.
/end rant
I liked the first 45 minutes of it, but once he left his apartment it went downhill from there.
You should post your Beau opinion on !movies@lemmy.world, I think since the movie sub is trying to keep its users on reddit it’s been slow to get movie discussion going here lol
Surely someone has already written a browser extension to automatically redirect reddit links to archive.[org|is]

Chrome has a way back machine extension
I’ve never actually used it though. Never had a reason till now
I’m just meming, I’m not actually mad at reddit
Edit: To those taking this seriously, don’t be mad at reddit. Be mad at the asshole running it.
Reddit has become yahoo answers to me. Not a place I browse
Don’t forget that it wasn’t reddit that provided that information, it was a user that submitted the information for free.
Exactly! I think that the solution to this issue is to ask more questions on Lemmy. If more people ask, we may be able to get more information without having to type “reddit” after our questions X)
There will come a time where we search using lemmy as keyword to find the answer straight away.
Would it work with instances without Lemmy in their name (like Beehaw)?
I know it’s a meme, but the way I see it is, giving Reddit a click or two won’t really move the needle much.
Really it’s about the long-term. If you’re on the Fediverse creating content and not on Reddit, eventually those search results will stop pointing at Reddit. That’s the real win I think.
Is there a viable way to google Fediverse content? I’ve not really had any luck with that. Mostly I get only Mastodon content.
Give it time. Reddit has only been the “go-to” for a few years. Before that it was random forums. As the fediverse picks up, it will become the go to. Especially considering a lot of the tech enthusiasts are moving here.
