Seems like the feeds are more active and I'm not hitting things with 3 upvotes 20 minutes into my scroll. Did Connect change something, did Lemmy or are we just seeing some population increase from Boost?

The last 3rd party app that is still holding its ground is infinity. It's a great app but a lot of users are telling the developer to just stop supporting Reddit.

Boost for Reddit quietly still works for moderators but the app is probably now unmaintained with all development effort (one guy) going towards the Lemmy version

Yeah. Boost still works fine for me though some bugs are there. Downloading videos isn't working properly and uploading images to posts is broken.

But then again, any app is better than the official one.

The official app is so terrible. I'll probably still check reddit occasionally using redreader once boost for reddit finally dies but it'll be a tiny fraction of my previous use. You'd have to pay me to use the official app.

Infinity has been subscription only for a month now. Unless you take the code and put in your own api key if you can still get it, you're not using it for free
