Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

Was using Bacon Reader for almost 10 years, kinda sad to see it go. But fuck Reddit, I'm here now.

Same. I never realized just how perfect the User Interface and customisable display was. So simple, so elegant. We were in the good old days and we didn't even know it

Lemmy looks promising but the current lower amount of content and community input from my Niche hobbies is a little depressing. Hopefully it picks up

Now for Reddit also still works, though I've only launched it long enough to check a few times today... It's best to give reddit as little traffic as we can right now. That insufferable douch-weasle Spez needs to see Reddit's Fidelity value drop again.

A fall in traffic and engagement will at least alarm Reddit's internal staff. All the bad press may help as well, though... And enough people dropping off will also be noticeable.

Who knows, though... I like Lemmy better, so far. I'm not sure I'm even protesting at this point. I didn't even plan to actually fully leave reddit, but at this stage... This is nice.

Im useing boost for reddit and its still working normally somehow. Did reddit not implement any changes yet or ?

[–] elvith@feddit.de 0 points 2 years ago

Relay for Reddit Pro is also still working. The author announced to switch to a subscription based model soon, but the Pro app can be used until then for "free" (besides the one time fee for the Pro version).

Maybe boost is doing something similar?

Guys, Connect for Lemmy is really good on Android.

Can also recommend Wefwef. Great experience so far.

i prefer reddit UI, but, there is no way im going back to reddit

[–] d0hboy@lemmy.ca 0 points 2 years ago

Hi there - someone just mentioned a PWA (not even a full app, just a installable web page) called wefwef - look it up. It's pretty usable beyond some of the other android apps out there already. Again, I emphasize and agree with you that the Reddit app ecosystem's UI is still better at this point.

Well that's that I guess. No more Reddit on my phone.

The popularity of this community might finally get me into pirating, lol. I subbed out of curiosity.

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 0 points 2 years ago (3 children)

I like that this community is dedicated to the concept of piracy based on their principals. I'm not involved, but I appreciate it

I've been using RIF and old.reddit.com for as long as they existed. Reddit since the big Digg transition. Hope to never see the same happen to Lemmy!!

got my data takeout request from reddit just in time

ran powerdelete suite to delete everything

it took almost 3 weeks to process the data takeout request, that means it is computationally expensive, everyone should ask for it to send a signal

[–] PropaGandalf@lemmy.world -1 points 2 years ago

Same experience here. They needed 2 and a half week!

[–] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Just an FYI - some apps are still working as of this moment... But yeah, most of us know it's only a matter of time.

Honestly, the content seems higher quality here. Perhaps the cesspools of Reddit were hard to spot for those of us who lurked there for over a decade.

Quality over quantity. Cheers to a new horizon, everyone.

Let's go. I just really do wish this social platform does not get taken over by corporate greed or becomes a political right/left platform.

I'm pretty sure I'm in the minority but it doesn't make sense why these elitists are so upset. It was bound to happen eventually. Then they say the official Reddit app is unusable? It's functional, it probably works better than half of the third party apps do anyway.

The only thing I'm upset about is the developers lost well earned money and their time and effort to make these apps only for them to shit the bed. But let's be real: nobody's really going to quit Reddit. I joined lemmy because I wanted a new social media app and I'm going to be using it alongside Reddit. Will I use Reddit more than lemmy? No, probably not. Will I use lemmy more than Reddit? Also no, probably not that either. I'll use them side by side.

It's kind of a shame that lemmy has mods though, from what I've been reading up on it, I thought it would be better than Reddit when it comes to freedom of speech. But just because it's "federated" doesn't mean you can't say whatever you want. It just means it's not owned by anyone in particular.
