I have no idea why it's taken me so long, but I've "discovered" #Redlib as a way to view #Reddit without all of the cruft. #selfhosted of course. https://www.macklin.co/redlib-reddit/

You can use Redlib to create an #RSS feed, which you can process in #Huginn to create a new version of the feed that includes the comments as well as the original post. Just right for using in your favourite rss news reader. https://www.macklin.co/redlib-via-huginn/

Been using it recently after switching from Libreddit.

Pro tip: you can use the LibRedirect extension for Firefox to point to the IP address that you self-host, and it's very seamless.

I actually use if to feed into Huginn, which means that it never leaves my local network. For the odd occasions that i want to add to the conversation i don't think that i have an alternative but to log into reddit (then log straight off after that). So it make sense to bake the right URL into the RSS. I don't browse reddit at random, but YMMV & an auto redirect to the redlib server is a good thing to have in reserve - I use Firefox, of course
