I’ve been using Reddit is fun on my phone using my account’s API key and it appears the ship has now finally sailed.
I would be curious to know if others are still able to access RIF/other third party clients, or not, so we can get some basic idea if this is a single account or them finally closing the last loophole.
It’s also completely valid to not care at all about Reddit because clearly this is an abusive company and for me personally, I can only see this being beneficial for my mental health.
Didn’t know that was possible. I might have wanted to use that feature 3 years ago, but on the other hand, I didn’t look for that feature 3 years ago. I was fed up with Reddit and still am. It was fun whil it lasted, but those days are gone now. I’ve gone back a few times, but its all bots and ads now. Some local and small communuties might still contain humans, but those are getting poisoned by right wingers.
The live pages during sports events are fun, but the rest seems to be pretty dire
I left after Apollo went down, I loved that app. I’ve only gone back to browse if Reddit comes up in a search engine for something I’m looking for. Even then, l try to find other sources of info. I absolutely do not log in though, if I have to login to see whatever info, then it’s not really important.
From the niches I hang out in I’d argue that the “keep politics out of my XYZ” mofos are losing pretty hard right now. Granted given how niches work we almost certainly do not visit the same fandom areas. It was absolutely glorious seeing the entire Silksong subreddit at war with Asmongold for 2-3 weeks.
