its a redirector (iirc) that redirects u to decentralized frontends for things like reddit, twitter, etc

What's the point?

it tries to check which instances are offline, to only redirect you to working ones. reddit can be redirected to libreddit/redlib, which makes reddit unable to track you, and these frontends are also much lighter on resources (ram, cpu, network traffic, cognitive load)
