I’m afraid that this interesting question is out of scope of this forum. This Category is only about Qubes OS and not for general discussions about everything.

i am asking how to most effectively utilize qubes for this.
the best i have come up with is:
a fresh vpn connection, a new email address, and a new appvm on a new os.
and that doesn’t get the job done.
(note how i am referring to qubes features there, this is a qubes question)

I operate various (Tor-friendly) privacy front-ends, including Redlib:
Looks cool, I wasn’t aware front-ends existed.
This appears to be read only though? It’s easy enough to be able to read Reddit for me, I want to be able to post and comment.

To briefly summarize, privacy front-ends scrape first-party platforms, then repackage those results into a web client that strips analytics/trackers, sometimes entirely removing JavaScript, for faster performance, increased privacy, reduced resources fetched, and improved accessibility. If you truly value your privacy, or to be more precise, anonymity, creating accounts on privacy-violating platforms is contrary to that objective, regardless of whether or not you are using privacy front-ends and/or separate AppVMs.

Thank you very much. As I suspected after reading these three words, this just opened up a wonderful pandora’s box of way to use much of the web…while not having to use many of these services, whose data mongering i despise.
FWIW ChatGPT gave me LibReddit as the one and only recommendation for Reddit, and had some very good things to say about it.
edit: whoops, that isn’t yours, that is the other one. i’ll leave that for posterity.

LibReddit was discontinued due to Reddit imposing API pricehikes a while back, so @sigaloid took it upon themselves to create a successor, which became Redlib. The other maintained Reddit privacy front-end I am aware of is eddrit, which I assume is the successor to teddit:
- corenting/eddrit - GotHub (on my GotHub instance)
I have not deployed an eddrit instance just yet since I am already using Redlib myself, but it is on my roadmap after acquiring a dedicated server.
This thread is indeed off-topic. I’ll close it.
Saying “I want to do X with Qubes OS” doesn’t make the question about Qubes OS unless X is somewhat different on Qubes OS than it is elsewhere.
