I’m curious about redirecting my Lemmy instance from https://lemmy.world/home/data_type/Post/listing_type/All/sort/New/page/1 to …/0 so that it stops scrolling. Another example; in the past I wanted a way to redirect www•reddit to old•reddit. I do stuff like this in a bash terminal all the time with terminal commands. What are the easiest techniques to achieve similar results in browsers? Obviously I’m asking for the same abstract functionality as a bash alias. I’m not thinking bash works in a browser or anything dumb like that.
The primary device runs a privacy hardened version of chromium without extensions (Graphene/Vanadium). It also runs most traffic through an OpenWRT fork on a router. I’m just not sure how to create a network filter with redirection or what this is called in the correct terminology, or what other techniques exist.
You probably are unable to tag/mention the user because beehaw is defederated from .world and I created this post from a .world user account.
The mentioned Redirector extension does exactly what you’re asking. If you want a solution without a browser extension though, I really don’t know what you can do.
If you’re open to using extensions, u can use iceraven, it’s a firefox fork that allows more extensions and tries to make it more compatible with them, although they might not work. I just checked and redirector that was mentioned on the other comment is available there. I use it as my primary mobile browser.
