Redditors will complain about everything without actually doing anything. The API debacle should be enough evidence. So many said big words and then never left, you would’ve thought Reddit would go under with all the words said. And now Reddit is doing fine and made more money than ever

What I find crazy is that they decided to pay for the API to keep using it with the few clients that operate that way, they are effectively paying for using Reddit SMFH.

Why would one even conceive that idea if you can have an ad-less experience of Reddit in desktop (Ublock Origin), iOS and Android (sideload) still.

you can use ublock origin on android firefox

[-] kratoz29@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Yeah, but I chose the iOS and Android clients every day (Apollo and Sync IMHO).

[-] Vespair@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

If you mod a sub, you can still use third party apps for some reason. I have a tiny, practically private sub, and I can still use the Boost app for reddit with no problem.

Oh, I am aware of that "hack" as well.

Can you see NSFW content too?

I am not really updated with how Reddit handled that after the APIcalypse.

[-] Vespair@lemm.ee 3 points 1 month ago

Yes. To the best of my knowledge there is no restriction, and the only breakages I've noticed in the app in that internal links don't work (links to a post on a sub just opens the sub) and I can't view the "other discussions" page on a post.

Do you mean when thousands of redditors, including a lot of top content creators, suddenly left? That's redditors doing something.

Don't forget administration. A lot of reddits spun up lemmy alternative.
