The list of instances you shared was updated recently, but I tried the one url in it (the rest are onion links or i2p, and are older versions of libreddit to boot) and the page didn’t even load.
Libreddit has been discontinued for nearly a year due to not working thanks to Reddit’s API changes, though about a month ago they updated their repo to direct people to RedLib, which allegedly does work. That said, I tried the official instance and got an error. However, it’s being actively developed and looks easy to self-host. I don’t know if there’s a list of unofficial public instances.
Found this section within the GitHub page you're linking to.
Most instances had an outage yesterday I noticed. I'll grant it's not perfect, and thanks for clarifying, I had been using, but forgot to mention, redlib as a redirect.
Self hosting is obviously the best option if you can, I just use the instances personally and 99% of the time those links have just worked for me, but I can't speak on other people's experience with them.
I'm just glad there's an alternative front end at all and there are those putting their instances out there.
