Farside provides links that automatically redirect to working instances of privacy-oriented alternative frontends, such as Nitter, Libreddit, etc. This allows for users to have more reliable access to the available public instances for a particular service, while also helping to distribute traffic more evenly across all instances and avoid performance bottlenecks and rate-limiting.
Farside also integrates smoothly with basic redirector extensions in most browsers.
Instances for each supported service that are deployed behind Cloudflare are not included when using farside.link (farside.link). If you would like to also access instances that use Cloudflare (in addition to instances that do not), you can use cf.farside.link (cf.farside.link).
