I used to use it for that too, but since the API-thing I got the impression that they all stopped working due to rate limiting?

It still works for private instances. The moment a public instance makes enough requests to reddit, they block it.

I'm running libreddit on my home server and access it through wireguard. Never been rate-limited. It's the only thing I still use Libredirect, since most platforms ban third-larry frontends.

Still works fine for me. Redlib is operational, but it’s a work around at best and will likely sunset at some point. To my knowledge their method is to employ guests accounts to scrape reddit content.
