Got it. |
The solution to that should be this: https://libredirect.github.io/docs.html#preferred_instance. It's already there in Teddit by this small |
@ManeraKai that doesn't work on Teddit when there's a 429 error. It's why I made this feature request. See below: |
I understand but the solution should be on Teddit's side. |
Unfortunately Teddit is no longer actively maintained so this is not possible. Other than Teddit there also other frontends (or particular instances) I've found sometimes don't load the pages correctly. I believe this is why frontends_manager was even created, to encourage users to instead utilise their own frontend for increased reliability? To make it easier to migrate from
As you might imagine, this is quite tedious. It's also the kind of feature that would be useful across every type of frontend, and for encouraging |

If I visit e.g. https://teddit.net/r/pics/comments/15frx1u/a_stained_glass_transom_i_made/ then when I open the pop-up it looks like LibRedirect already knows I'm on a Teddit instance as it shows the toggle for I presume that it does this by checking the current webpage URL against the list of known public instances that LibRedirect already has access to.

Ah, I don't quite understand how that works then in relation to the 3 approaches you suggested. I would have said my preferred approach is what I said there: "checking the current webpage URL against the list of known public instances that LibRedirect already has access to". Not sure if that's possible or not. Failing that, approach 2 is better than not having a workaround, as long as this feature can be toggled off/on. |
I've got bookmarks for webpages on Teddit instances, as well as RSS feeds from various instances also. Often when I visit these webpages now I find the content doesn't load due to a 429 error e.g. https://teddit.zaggy.nl/r/AskReddit.
I've now switched over to using
localhost
instance type for Teddit, so it would be helpful if there was a button toRedirect to localhost
when visiting a public instance site, if the localhost option is enabled. Right now I have to delete the domain name, typereddit.com
and have to redirect to thelocalhost
