Few days ago, I discovered the Firefox addon Redirector (which you can download here) which I now use as a subtitute for Privacy Redirect as Redirector is much more powerful. As Privacy Redirect only supports Nitter, Invidous, Bibliogram and OpenStreetMap, the possibilities in Redirector are pretty much endless.
This addon features two modes to redirect stuff:
https://example.com/*
https://(www.)?example.(com)?/(*.)
Here is some of my current settings:
Redirect: https://(mobile.)?twitter.com/(.*)
to: https://nitter.tedomum.net/$2
Example: https://twitter.com/WholesomeMeme/status/1329846975575904256
→ https://nitter.tedomum.net/WholesomeMeme/status/1329846975575904256
Redirect: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/*
to: https://sci-hub.se/https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/$1
Example: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1057521920302131
→ https://sci-hub.se/https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1057521920302131
Redirect: https://(www.)?amazon.(.*).(.*)
to: https://darmarit.org/morty/?mortyurl=https://amazon.$2
Example: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01EHMXCL0?linkId=a22cc4b646e241776ad8f630d3e9f2a3

Don't hesitate to thinker by yourself to improve the efficiency of those redirects.
As you may have seen, I am now using a XD75re keyboard (since september) which runs on the Open-Source firmware QMK. I chose the XD75re as it is a ortholinear keyboard, which, I wanted to test for quite some time now. I primarily intended to buy a Typematrix but those turned out to be pretty much not modular enough with a price tag of around 110USD.
This is why I settled on the XD75re. Because it uses QMK (Quantum Mechanical Keyboard), everything can be modified, from the layout to the LED effects of the board, without any specific software (even tho the qmk
cli utility is recommended to flash new layouts).
My very own keyboard uses:
With a price tag of around 95EUR for everything, it is somewhat affordable for a custom keyboard and even tho it takes some time to be used to the layout, really comfortable.
Do you guys love foxes? If so, you're in luck, I've discovered a small API that gives you a random fox for infinite cuteness! Here is an example of this API, right into this page (refresh to see the fox change):
