- Rated 5 out of 5by metaphil, 3 years agothanks, this is the a very good replacement for Redirector and PrivacyRedirect. Have been waiting for this.
✅ update instance list with a single click
✅ auto set dark theme (where applicable)
✅ exceptions
✅ many, many services
✅ friendly #gui - Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 12986837, 3 years agoWorks well enough and generally, the extension is greatly appreciated. But it feels like more instances are offline than not. Maybe they should be pinged and checked before even trying to use them. But the main reason why im uninstalling the app is because firefox is trying to download random html files from various websites while the addon is running.

1.6.0 has been released with the fix. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12611530, 3 years agoOMG this is amazing! Particularly the search redirect. I was happy enough with Qwant but seeing the way LibRedirect throws each new search query to a different server, I no longer have to trust a single search engine. Woo freakin hoo!

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16465818, 3 years ago1.5.3 doesn't work in Firefox at all — no redirects. Had to roll back to 1.5.2 which works like charm. Sorry, I don't have a GitHub account to file a bug properly.
UPD: if the settings do not persist and the redirects no longer work, just reinstall the extension — this resets the settings and fixes it.
This extension is great!Developer response

Edit: I have updated my review in light of the update. The fix for the homepage doesn't work however as the stored homepages were wiped after the update.Developer response
posted 3 years agoSorry for that, I've patched this and released 1.5.1. Here's how you can change back the default homepage: https://github.com/libredirect/libredirect/issues/101#issuecomment-1064028758 - Rated 5 out of 5by Max, 3 years ago
- Rated 5 out of 5by raspberryalpenglow, 3 years agoAmazing extension, updated frequently, works well and it's FOSS. Far superior to https://addons.mozilla.org/it/firefox/addon/privacy-redirect/
