I have been trying to avoid Reddit. However, I still often end up being forced to click on a link to a post while searching for something specific. It is a hassle to manually change the link to libreddit or teddit everytime.
For my own purposes, I wrote a userscript to redirect any Reddit link automatically to Libreddit. Since, I thought I should post it here since someone could find it useful, and many of you prefer using Teddit, I also made a Teddit version. You should install only one.
Reddit to Libreddit: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469587-reddit-to-libreddit-redirect
Reddit to Teddit: https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/469588-reddit-to-teddit-redirect
You will need a userscript manager addon like Violentmonkey installed in your browser to make use of these scripts.
Disclaimer: These are my first ever userscripts.
I am glad it works. Teddit and Libreddit devs seem to be working on switching from API to web scraping. I hope they are successful. Otherwise, old reddit is the only choice.
@LollerCorleone I hope so too. I don’t wanna lose the wealth of knowledge and tips but I also don’t want to give Reddit themselves the time of day.

Yep! Btw, I have updated the script and added randomized instances than relying on a single one. Do let me know if you face any issues. At least till teddit and libreddit works.
@LollerCorleone will do thanks! Updated them in my browsers. Will let you know.

Thank you for keeping my in the loop and for the suggested solution. Much appreciated!
