I want to be logged in so I can do most things on Reddit like post and comment. I want it to be a web frontend rather than an app because I keep many tabs on Reddit open in my browser while doing research on things (like digital privacy for instance!). I did some searching and didn’t find any currently working frontends with login support.
You must log in or register to comment.
Reddit killed them a year ago. That’s why people switched to Lemmy btw.
You mean something using their API? Then I have some bad “news” for you 😅
Very unlikely to exist. Libreddit (that didn’t support user login to start with) was discontinued a while ago, and Reddit’s hostile stance on 3rd party clients in general means any project gaining prominence will get killed before they become popular. RedReader (an Android app) is only permitted to use its API for free because of public outcry due to accessibility issues involving blind users. A web frontend with user login support for Reddit will get hunted down by Reddit’s legal department if it ever reaches maturity.

Bless their souls. I cringe whenever I have to open a Reddit page from browser. And I know that
old.reddit.comwon’t last forever.deleted by creator
I know you want a webapp, but Red Reader still works last time I checked. It’s an open source android app. It still has API access since they don’t make money. Perhaps something to use away from your computer.
what about https://old.reddit.com or https://reddit.com?
VPNs are blocked.
doesn’t old reddit work well enough? they removed the login prompt but it can be restored pretty easily with a userscript (just inject the login prompt copied from the wayback machine)
Unfortunately, since the API change, Reddit blocks VPNs even on old Reddit.
EDIT: If you must visit reddit via VPN, consider using sh.reddit.com. It only supports the new layout though.
