It supports both links and embeds and is available on firefox for android. List of sites is on github. I'm the main developer so you can ask questions.

Is it a fork of LibRedirect?

[–] libreom@lemmings.world 14 points 2 years ago (10 children)

No, written from scratch in manifest v3 with minimal permissions

Nice. What are the benefits over LibRedirect?

Does PreDirect also have instance discovery built in along with the ability to ping services?
