r/Redirect Autor: Seth Falco

r/Redirect (r-slash-redirect) redirects searches for a subreddit to the respective subreddit on Reddit. For example, a search for r/memes will be redirected to the subreddit instead of search results.

• Override searches for r/… in popular search engines to redirect immediately to the respective subreddit.
• Registers a search keyword, so that when you enter r/, you search with the r/Redirect add-on which takes you to the respective subreddit.

Supported Search Engines

• Baidu 🇨🇳
• Bing 🇺🇸
• DuckDuckGo 🇺🇸
• Ecosia 🇩🇪
• Google 🇺🇸
• Startpage 🇳🇱
• Qwant 🇫🇷
• Yahoo 🇺🇸
• Yandex 🇷🇺

LibRedirect

This add-on pairs well with LibRedirect. If you install LibRedirect and enable Reddit redirection, you'll be redirected to your preferred privacy-friendly Reddit frontend, like Redlib.

Alternatives

Some search engines feature their own shortcuts to zoom to or search on websites quickly—no add-on required.

• Qwant 🇫🇷 has Qwick search shortcuts with the shortcuts &sr … or !sr ….
• DuckDuckGo 🇺🇸 has Bangs with the shortcut !sr ….

If you use one of these search engines, give it a try. Or consider switching your default search engine over if you don't! Searches like !sr memes will take you to r/memes in the same way this add-on would. (sr being short for subreddit)
