best way to view old reddit content without giving them revenue? - eviltoast

The greatest thing about Reddit is finding information on any old topic. For today, I wanted to dig deeper into My Dinner With Andre. RIF tried to open (he’s such a trooper 😢) and when that failed I went to the browser.

I really want nothing to do with supporting that site, but I do want to read these old discussions. Any advice?

    Exactly what usually do as soon as I’m caught up. See the theories and missed connections for TV and book series.

    I hope this will eventually also kick off here. For tech news, memes and doomscrolling lemmy is already full enough for my taste, but the casual users deep in fandoms have not arrived, yet, at least not in scale.

      I don’t think I’ve ever seen a movies or TV community in my “all” scrolling. Lots of old memes tho.

            Thanks, bot, but I personally have had better luck putting the full URL in my instance’s search bar. The version starting in “!” comes up when someone on my instance is already subscribed to the community, but sometimes not if I’m the first one interested. But I will edit with the other version as well.
