not exactly news
but still worth researching what the consequences of this were
Was it Yahtzee? Sounds like something he would come up with.
there is a bridge, but some parts of the fediverse got very mad about it

Other comments already pointed to some very good software solutions.
But I would argue that absolutely the biggest barrier to entry for the masses is hardware.
Restoring an old PC or making some cable spaghetti with some SBC is currently too advanced for average person.
Self-hosting for the masses would require some new form of home servers.
Something modular, where adding new components would be as easy as playing with Lego bricks.
Is this the “agile” development methodology that I heard so much about?
Problem is that the whole concept of advertising is “telling other people what to do”.
RSS is freedom
go tell other people to use it

Your post is missing the most important information that you wanted to share
GotHub seems to display basic GitHub stuff decently well.
https://gh.whateveritworks.org/
so this is similar to LibRedirect?
https://github.com/libredirect/browser_extension
https://libredirect.github.io/
check out this list of privacy frontends and see if you can implement any of them in Predirect
Also, I see that you only handle one instance for redirect. Either the default instance or custom instance.
Consider implementing multiple instances.
Here is list of instances that LibRedirect uses:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/libredirect/instances/main/data.json
Here is a list of instances that Farside.link uses:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/benbusby/farside/master/services-full.json
Both LibRedirect and Farside still have to deal with the rate-limiting problem with Youtube and Reddit and I assume other sites as well.
Invidious instance or Teddit instance can be rate-limited, resulting in video not playing or post not showing up.
If your extension does not distribute user traffic across multiple instances, then I assume that your chosen instances will get hammered into ratelimit even faster than other instances.
So consider thinking about solution for this.
One of suggestions that I like is to allow user to provide an URL to a list of instances.
That way, someone or some automated system can periodically compose a list of instances and users can “subscribe” to that list.
Also some useful links:

sup dawg, head you like announcements, so we announced our announcement in our latest announcement
ZP ran for a very long time. At this point I am not even mad that it ends.
someone go check what are some longest running web series and where does ZP stand on that list
I am aware of those two, but those are just for file storage. I was thinking something more general. Like having a Virtual Private Server, that people can extend with their donated resources. VPS can be used for more than just file storage. It can do processing as well.
gotta fail fast
we really want the TikTok audience
this is just one of the instances
there are many more instances according to https://farside.link/ (which is a thing that will automatically redirect you to one of them: https://farside.link/teddit/ )
so by using this, you help reduce the load on individual instance, resulting in less “too many requests” errors for everyone.
This article makes it look like EU CVP defines “metaverse” as “lol connected stuff I guess” and not as “VRChat by Zucc”.
Which is good.
Still, I wonder if they will take (and contribute to) ThirdRoom or Mozilla Hubs instead of reinventing the wheel when they come to the VR part of their plan.
Time to promote Loops all over the internet?
