Reddit to Teddit/Libreddit Redirect Userscripts (kbin.social)

I have been trying to avoid Reddit. However, I still often end up being forced to click on a link to a post while searching for something specific. It is a hassle to manually change the link to libreddit or teddit everytime.

For my own purposes, I wrote a userscript to redirect any Reddit link automatically to Libreddit. Since, I thought I should post it here since someone could find it useful, and many of you prefer using Teddit, I also made a Teddit version. You should install only one.

Reddit to Libreddit: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469587-reddit-to-libreddit-redirect
Reddit to Teddit: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469588-reddit-to-teddit-redirect

You will need a userscript manager addon like Violentmonkey installed in your browser to make use of these scripts.

Disclaimer: These are my first ever userscripts.

Just a note. Most libredditbinstancea will be shutting down as well. It's being modified to allow for you to add your own API key, but many large instances aren't going to be afford to continue running with the API changes.

Yeah. This was also a learning exercise for me. Libreddit and Teddit devs seem to be thinking of switching to web scraping if nothing else works. Let's see how that goes.
