    It’s been so difficult lately with all the subreddits going private. Makes me sad that I can’t get help through Reddit anymore. Years and years of QnA down the drain.

    True this, I had an issue using the duckstation emulator and then googled and the whole first page of search hits were reddit posts to a blacked out sub. Grrr.

    Copy the link and search an archive; the sub me may be down anyways. Also post your solution here. Be the change you want to see

    press shift+ctrl+A or click on archive if you use google.

      And this means we’re not giving them clicks or anything? It’s basically as if we’ve never visited in the first place?

      I get that “no ads no tracking”, but does the proxy give them a view? I don’t want them to get any traffic from me, proxy or otherwise.

      Thanks for sharing

    Whenever that happens, I take a look at the result and bring it here.

    I make a post at the relevant community. If it doesn’t exist, I make it. I encourage you to do the same. :)
