Links in lisp.reddit.com point to back to our site 17

Instead of pointing to reddit's articles/discussions, the links point back to our own site.

Not really -- for me, the links point to whatever the reddit link is pointing to (in the case of the announcement of new clnet, then yes, it points to common-lisp.net). If you click on the comments, it goes to the reddit comments section. I'm not sure if there's anything to fix here (do you want the main link to go to Reddit instead of directly to the thing being linked?)

Ah. I hadn't noticed that. Actually, I think it's much more valuable to link to the reddit page than to the item pointed to by that page, yes. Because you expect to end up on a reddit page when clicking on a reddit item, no?

The front page no longer carries a Reddit box. It shows our own news, recently active GitLab projects and Planet Lisp, and their links go where they say. Closing.
