I want to be logged in so I can do most things on Reddit like post and comment. I want it to be a web frontend rather than an app because I keep many tabs on Reddit open in my browser while doing research on things (like digital privacy for instance!). I did some searching and didn’t find any currently working frontends with login support.

      Except they didn’t. And not even 0,00001% did the switch

    Unfortunately, that doesn’t exist without the API. You could use the normal frontend and container tabs for ff. They are an extension, but it’s made by Mozilla and integrates quite well. You can even automate it so Reddit always opens in a specific container.

    doesn’t old reddit work well enough? they removed the login prompt but it can be restored pretty easily with a userscript (just inject the login prompt copied from the wayback machine)

      Unfortunately, since the API change, Reddit blocks VPNs even on old Reddit.

      EDIT: If you must visit reddit via VPN, consider using sh.reddit.com. It only supports the new layout though.
