Overview of alternative open source front-ends for popular internet platforms.

Info

  • Do you know any other projects about front ends or alternatives to websites, apps, etc. that are not included in the overview yet?
  • Just create an issue and let me know. I'm always looking for new projects to add.

  • straw-viewer: a fork of, and created by the same author of, youtube-viewer. Uses Invidious API
  • invidious-viewer: similar to straw-viewer. Requires MPV player and libmpv.so, provided by Linux distro
  • Top of Reddit: like HNTopLinks but for Reddit
  • RedditClient: alternative front-end for Reddit, built with Angular
