Official instance: eddrit.com

Inspired by Nitter, an alternative frontend for Twitter.

Written with Python & Starlette.

Usage

You can use the official instance at eddrit.com.

Like Nitter, the URLs are identical to reddit, so if you can just replace reddit.com by eddrit.com to open a Reddit page in eddrit.

Deployment (for self-hosting)

You can also deploy eddrit for yourself if you don't want to use the public instance.

Docker (recommended)

You can get the image from either:

There are multiple tags:

The following architectures are supported by the Docker image:

Without Docker

If you know how to deploy a Python ASGI application, you can also deploy it directly without Docker.

For example, with uvicorn:

  1. Make sure Python >=3.13 is installed on your system as it's the minimum version supported by eddrit.
  2. Install Poetry which is used to manage dependencies of the project.
  3. Download/clone the repository and run poetry install --only main to install the application.
  4. You can then run the app through uvicorn, for example with the following command: poetry run uvicorn eddrit.app:app

Configuration

The application can be configured through environment variables (if a .env file is present, it will also be read).

eddrit needs a valkey instance to work. You need specify the connection url with the VALKEY_URL environment variable (or in your env file).

The following configuration parameters are also available:

Donations

If you wish to support the app, donations are possible here.
