For me it feels like breaking up with someone after many years. At the same time, I feel a bit dirty mentioning the name in the post title.

Oh, it's already like that - they shove posts from popular subs (that I don't sub to for a reason) straight into your feed, and if they have nothing relevant they turn new sub suggestions into alerts and posts from a random sub of yours as notifications.

I like my 3rd party apps, but I don't hate the official app enough to quit.

I do hate when my apps wear down my mental health though, so here I am. Hell, I'm considering taking a swing at a 3rd party Lemmy app myself...

Maybe I will! Maybe I spent the last few hours learning new tech and digging through source code to the websockets to play nice so I could make it totally platform agnostic! Maybe I named it flemmy and am on course to overtake jerboa in features with another few days of focus!

You always say you're proud but never believe in me dad!
