I'm glad, hopefully it's more pressure on reddit to change their tune, we will see though
I hope they keep making bad decisions and more people move to decentralised platforms.
If there’s one thing Reddit’s known for, it’s checks notes listening to community views and responding with policy improvements
You had me right up to “improvements”….
They are definitely " improving " the default reddit app with their planned advert updates
Different perspectives, I estimate reddit have realised that they can do literally whatever they want - And most users don't care. Compare the engagement in the community regarding this matter by number of reddit users.
And for those who do care INTENSELY, most of those users will be back in two to three days!
At this point it seems akin to the sort of psychological dependence I've seen in abusive
After using reddit daily for 10 years I will only consider going back if RiF will continue to work. I moved on from wow after years there, moved on from Facebook, moved on from Twitter, and moved on from Instagram. I don't see why reddit would be any different.
We shall see once the apps stop working. I keep instinctively running RIF of my phone and there is content, even if some subreddits are down. Once RIF goes dark I won't have that instant click and who knows when I'll be back. If I have to browse to a site, then it doesn't have to be Reddit.
I took the app off my homescreen, just to try to wean myself off of it, instead of having to go cold turkey at the end of the month. Lemmy is my crutch now, but I kinda hope I don't get as addicted anyway.
Abusive relationships. Sorry for cut post, this Jerboa android it just jumps around is literally the worst app for editing text I've ever used.
In fairness the app is fine, it's just a bug with the text input that's absolutely maddening. The Webapp directly from the instances are great.
If only there were some 3rd party app developers looking for a new project…
