Personally use this tool on a daily basis. YMMV wrt the frontends provided, but I use it as my daily driver to help me evade Reddit, Twitter, and YouTube’s tracking of everything I do.

I see your client-side redirect and I raise you a server-side redirect:
https://farside.link/ (source code)
It does many frontends:
https://farside.link/invidious/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ - Rickroll on Youtube
https://farside.link/teddit/r/lemmy - /r/lemmy through teddit
https://farside.link/nitter/ishl3outyet - IsHL3OutYet Twitter account through Nitter
and many more
it has a list of instances for each of those frontends and picks one when you open a link
this helps with combating link rot, as links will stay alive even if some frontend instances go down
Oooo thanks!
While Farside does not have its own official browser extension, the functionality integrates well with Redirector, which is available for Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Opera. Setup
For ease of use,
