### Alternative Frontends
Alternative frontends are good to protect your individual privacy. You can still consume the contents of privative and privacy-harmful services with protection over your privacy and some anonimity. Even using most these alternative frontends, still, the privative services will receive requests about the content you are consuming (even not knowing it is you). This sitll harms the collective privacy and adds data to their algorithms in some ways.
You can use these tools to automatically redirect any links to privacy-respecting alternative frontends:
- [Farside](https://github.com/benbusby/farside) - A smart redirecting gateway for various frontend services.
- [LibRedirect](https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect#get) - A web extension that redirects YouTube, Twitter, Instagram... requests to alternative privacy friendly frontends and backends.
- [UntrackMe](https://www.f-droid.org/en/packages/app.fedilab.nitterizeme/) - Transform Youtube, Twitter & Instagram links to their free and open source alternatives.
### Instagram
<img width="16" src="misc/forbidden.png"> </img> Don't use Instagram (or at least the official client). Instagram is a very privacy-invasive app with biased results and feeds based on user profiles, it is also used as a manipulation tool and has a lot of censorship going against free speech. Lastly, it has an addictive and toxic UI design.

### LBRY and Odysee

- [Librarian](https://codeberg.org/librarian/librarian) - An alternative frontend for LBRY/Odysee. Inspired by Invidious and Libreddit.
### YouTube
<img width="16" src="misc/forbidden.png"> </img> Don't use YouTube (or at least the official client). YouTube is very privacy invasive, it generates a very accurate profile based on your interests. Also it is a [radicalization tool](https://www.pcmag.com/news/does-youtubes-algorithm-lead-to-radicalization) which shows [biased content to users](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.08313.pdf) in order to get more engagement and to get them to watch more and more content creating an [addiction](https://medium.com/dataseries/how-youtube-is-addictive-259d5c575883). It never shows you [alternative opinions](https://arxiv.org/pdf/1908.08313.pdf) to your ideology/bias. YouTube censors a lot. YouTube collects a LOT of your data: interests, free time, ideology, likes, dislikes, music taste, etc.
