Teddit: a free and open-source Reddit front end focused on privacy

This is really challenging thing to do without any client-side JS. It would require downloading media (not just little thumbnails) of every post in the current subreddit view. I might make a feature where people can enable (disabled by default) certain features from the preferences which enables them to use features like this which require client-side JS.

Thanks for making this!

Is there any way for a browser plugin to use client-side JS without the site using it? I know this might be a stupid question, but I know very little of extension and frontend development.

That aside, if it isn't too much work to add or support RES features, I would love it and totally use teddit. I (and perhaps some other people here) would even be willing to throw a few bucks your way to help with development/server costs if you open up a donation page.

Having given teddit a go this would probably be a must-have for me. I'm by no means an anti-javascript absolutist though.
