FYI, I curate setups like these on https://reddit.com/r/ergomobilecomputers

I use to be able to read Reddit links on my phone browser, now they simply it a useless banner preventing me from being able to even read the thing unless I download their tracker. Now, I need to train my brain to never click on Reddit links when reading HN on phone :-(

There are browser extensions like PrivacyRedirect (iOS app) and LibRedirect (Chrome, Firefox …), that have the ability to redirect you to alternative reddit frontends (teddit and so on).

You can just edit the link into `i.reddit.com/<whatever>`, it still works on phones. Bonus, it uses less data and little to no js.

This no longer seems to be working for me. Did something change on reddit's end?

Another option for some users: “Request Desktop Website” on iOS/Safari.

The Apollo app is great, unfortunately it involves installing an app and a Safari plugin that still can't open up Reddit pages in the app directly.

Not sure what’s wrong with your setup but this has worked pleasantly well for me for quite some time now

If you use nice third party app Apollo you get a share sheet action to "open this link in Apollo" which skips their ads and tracking and what have you.

Ooo you did that! I love your subreddit. We need to find more examples for it.

Thanks! Yeah, I've spelunked many corners of reddits, discords, twitter, and geekhack forums for the posts so far, but happy with what it has overall. Initially started as just an upload of bookmarks. Feel free to share your setup when ready!

Curating what's been there helped me find some ideas less common or at the edge of the keyboard/cyberdeck scenes, and inspired me finally start prototyping. Stay tuned.

There's definitely other things I've found but didn't post if it felt too keyboard-focused (plenty of other subreddits doing that), or too boutique & cyberdeck-y (i.e. not everyday use).
