- Rated 2 out of 5by Anon reviewer, a day agoDoesnt work on some wikipedia websites. When it doesn't work the error doesn't give the extension name, doesn't fit in the viewport and doesn't give you an option to disable on that page eg km.wikipedia.org has no instance on wikiless so it totally blocks access with an error that is no help
It also is an all-or-nothing for families of websites so you have to totally disable it for all wikipedias if one isn't on the instance set.
There is also no bypass for if you want to login to edit eg fandoms or wikipedias - Rated 5 out of 5by Hiro, 5 days ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by adamhybel, 2 months agoLibRedirect is a fantastic extension dedicated to enhancing your online privacy by seamlessly redirecting you to privacy-respecting alternative front-ends for popular websites.
- Automatic Privacy Protection: Effortlessly redirects requests from services like YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, Instagram, and more to privacy-focused alternatives (e.g., Invidious, Nitter, Libreddit, Bibliogram), significantly reducing tracking and data harvesting.
- Seamless Browsing: Works transparently in the background. You click a standard link, and LibRedirect intelligently routes you to a safer front-end without requiring manual effort.
- Often Lighter & Cleaner: Many alternative front-ends offer faster loading times, less bloat, and fewer distractions compared to the original platforms.
- Trustworthy & Open Source: Like the best privacy tools, LibRedirect is free, open-source, and developed with user empowerment in mind. No corporate interests, just community-driven privacy enhancement.
- Configurable: While it works effectively with defaults, advanced users can easily customize which services are redirected and select their preferred alternative instances.
That's it! Keep LibRedirect enabled to automatically bolster your privacy online. It's an invaluable tool for anyone looking to minimize their digital footprint without sacrificing access to content. A huge thank you to the developers for creating and maintaining this crucial privacy shield. Highly recommended for all privacy-conscious internet users! - Rated 5 out of 5by DefiDefender, 3 months ago
- Rated 2 out of 5by Kualdir, 3 months agoNo option to only redirect when opening a video so I can use the youtube front-end to search for videos but another to watch them.
Also for maps only OpenStreetMaps is an option. Would love HereWeGo maps and other alternatives as well. - Rated 1 out of 5by Dex Luther, 3 months agoThis does not work. Wanted to use it to get around Imgur blocking VPNs, but the redirects all seem to be blocked by imgur. Pointless for me.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Domenico, 6 months agoSono più i siti che non funzionano che quelli nella quale si può usare. Tanto vale usare le estensioni singole!
