My reddit web viewer still works! Story: When reddit killed 3rd party apps, I uploaded a web viewer I have been using for myself to Github pages for everyone to use...

If you want to lurk on Reddit, you can use this web reader I built for myself when I got inspired by the Apollo app years ago

Curious, why the cloudflare analytics?
- I wanted to see how many people are using this, the analytics are anonymous. I will switch it to a better privacy friendly analytics service soon.
  
  This brings me to a conversation that I wish more people talked about: I'm totally fine with (and even like the concept of) anonymous analytics. It gives the website owner insight onto what the aggregate is doing, helping the website respond to demands.
  
  But the problem is when the analytics providers themselves abuse that data and sell it in some way.
  
  I know you're not the owner of the project, but for your knowledge this is a static page hosted on Github Pages. There's no "responding to demands" like a traditional web app!
  
  What I meant for "responding to demands" is if a lot of people click on a certain feature, then you can expand that feature.
