Salient point. Dont get me wrong, I use FF reader mode all day long and I sing its praises to all who will listen. But I am using this to access content over Tor when cloudflare would otherwise prevent me from doing so.

I would not recommend for anyone to feed all their browsing to a third party in a way that can easily be tied back to them, but I am using this tool to overcome a specific obstacle when I encounter it and not otherwise.

Maybe I should have described this scenario more completely at the start of my post 🤷

My use case is to access text and link content on a web page anonymously over Tor without getting blocked by Cloudflare.

I found it!😁 At https://muckrack.com/podcast/sporkful/episodes/

Looks like the other missing episodes are there too?

FWIW, the transcript is still available on the page xl_ent linked.

I tried it before finding imgsed but each instance had issues loading images past the first page of a user’s profile. But I will check back occasionally

lists of other alternative front-end services or projects that i (also) have not vetted:

“A web extension that redirects YouTube, Twitter, Instagram… requests to alternative privacy friendly frontends and backends.” https://libredirect.github.io/ - the list they use. https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect - extension (source)

list of some instances https://farside.link/ - (source)

a list of projects, with some other stuff on it too https://www.funkyspacemonkey.com/foss-front-ends-and-alternatives-for-twitter-instagram-reddit-youtube-and-more

thanks for posting this, great read

Maybe google downranks db0 instance like it does other pirate sites?

P.S. in the meantime, a user has created a FireFox addon that might be useful, I have not checked it out myself.
