    Forked from Privacy Redirect in december 2021, it aims to solvee the problem of instances going offline and their list not being updated. It's also a much more complete URL-Forwarding tool with less hassle and even automatic re-forwarding when the selected instance isn't available online. Best alternative hands down!
