Hello, I have what I think might be a simple suggestion to implement. Might=
 the libredirect extension (https://github.com/libredirect/browser_extensio=
n) be preferable to PrivacyRedirect? While it appears that some of the inst=
ance urls originate from the libredirect fork of PrivacyRedirect anyway (pe=
rhaps the main benefit), the fork does offer automatic redirects from more =
tracking-heavy websites than the original does, which some people may prefe=
r. I personally just changed my bookmark to reflect the availability of a f=
ree frontend, but the fork might be of use to someone who often comes acros=
s links to the websites included only in the fork.
