yeah, i hate reddit too... fuckers block me like 99% of the time when im on vpn and just wanting to view contents w/o logging in. And unfortunately even https://fmhy.net/reading links to the reddit version
here's some guides already on dbzer0 (the pics are dead or a lie but it should still work):
- Guide: The idiot proof guide to downloading ebooks off IRC.
With Pictures and everything!edit: there's no pics - A guide on how to pirate e-books using IRC (had pics but they are dead now)

and if you hate reddit as much as I do, you can use alt front ends + the open-source redirector addon (linked to homepage but its on github and firefox/chrome addon sites too).
Some alt front end pages I had bookmarked:
basically, what I do is find a list of the instances for whichever front-end (any of them should be fine. but to give example, from the sr.ht list, I picked redlib then went to their instances list and tried a couple and picked one that had decent load times for me then used it to fill in the following details for a redirect in the addon):
addon settings (replace redlib.catsarch.com with your preferred instance):
Description: reddit to catsarch.com (US redlib instance) redirect
Include Pattern: ^https?://(?:\w+\.)?reddit.com/(.*)$
Pattern Type: regular expression
Pattern Description: keep the path from reddit but replace the domain
Redirect to: https://redlib.catsarch.com/$1
Example URL: https://www.reddit.com/r/books
Example result: https://redlib.catsarch.com/r/books
note: if you actually login to reddit then my pattern might be too simplistic and could potentially break login when the rule is active... bc it would be trying to log you in on the frontend instead of reddit actual. i don't ever login there so never really tested it. but it works great if you just want to be able to read shit there without logging in
