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 . If you would like to also access instances that use Cloudflare (in addition to instances that do not), you can use .
