Overview

Right-click any link or page to reopen it through your chosen reader mirror.

# Reader Redirect Reader Redirect is specially designed for Medium.com articles and Medium-hosted publications. It provides a quick and simple way to open articles through your preferred reader service. Simply right-click an article link or the page you are currently reading, select Reader Redirect, and choose a configured reader service. The reader version opens in a new tab while your original page remains unchanged. ### How It Works 1. Right-click a Medium article link or the current webpage. 2. Select Reader Redirect. 3. Choose your preferred reader service. 4. The article opens in a new tab through the selected service. ### Key Features - Built for Medium — Designed specifically for Medium.com articles and Medium-hosted publications. - One-click access — Open an article through a reader service directly from the right-click menu. - Multiple reader services — Add and manage multiple reader services in one place. - Fully configurable — Define your own reader URL using a simple {url} template. - Custom domains — Supports Medium publications hosted on custom domains. - New-tab experience — Opens the reader version in a new tab without replacing your current page. - Smart domain detection — Choose which domains should display the Reader Redirect menu. - Privacy-focused — No account, tracking, analytics, or telemetry. - Minimal permissions — Uses only the permissions needed for the context menu and extension settings. - Open source — The complete source code is publicly available. ### Privacy & Security Reader Redirect does not host, copy, scrape, or modify article content. It only takes the original article URL, applies your configured reader-service URL template, and opens the resulting URL in a new tab. The extension does not require an account and does not collect analytics, telemetry, or browsing data. Reader Redirect is open source and designed to provide a simple, lightweight, and privacy-focused reading workflow for Medium articles. ### Support the Project If you find Reader Redirect useful, you can support its continued development by buying me a coffee. https://buymeacoffee.com/eclairsmelody
