My friend sent me this, the current state of Reddit. (I left during the app issue and haven't looked back)
... and I am starting to see user agent and VPN blocks now just within the last few days... It's officially over, so glad to be here. Been in the fediverse since the API shutdown. Bouncing between instances. First post on this one! Absolutely no regrets.
Yeah I read they tried to play that off as an accident. You don't "accidentally" block VPN users. That just doesn't accidentally happen. They're obviously attempting to do it, just waiting to deploy it. The anonymous social network sure does seem like they want you to not be anonymous.
I am constantly amazed that anyone is still using that corporate dumpster fire of a website
"See you next week," one user smugly commented to me on my way out.
I haven't been back, and I haven't missed it.
The overwhelming smugness was the very thing that finally got me to leave lol
Lol I left with the APIcalypse, and I was an official app user, no regrets and never looked back. Why would anyone go to that shithole when you have the fediverse?
To be honest, they were right as often as they were wrong. Plenty of folks who proclaimed they’d never return to Reddit returned within the month. Some of the most outspoken were the quickest. I find the mods who returned particularly giggle-worthy.
Oh, I saw a lot of those lmao.
God... I can barely remember the time before the top comment threads of every goddamned post were always lazy strings of circle-jerky jokes that you could predict before even clicking into the thread.
I could barely remember too, then I took an arrow to the knee!
Something something narwhal bacon
I too choose this narwhal's dead bacon
Wow, epic! I rate this comment 5/7 with rice! You've won the internet for today, my friend! I'll pet my heckin chonky pupperino in your honor! You're breathtaking!
This is better than that time my arms were broken and my mom took care of me (don't worry, we're not from Alabama! LOL 😂)
Don't you love it when they're not even made by humans, but it's just bots copying the top comment from the last time it got posted
ngl I haven't been back to reddit since the exodus, but my youtube watching has gone up waaay too high.
I can't even open reddit on a phone nowadays, cause my preferred sub have 18+ posts and reddit don't let you access that if you not logged in. Also, there a notification, that I need to use shitty official mobile app. Also, there notification to login via google. Also, there a notification... Nope, I not using this shit ever again.
Firefox mobile now has a full suite of extensions, including old reddit redirect to bypass all that bs. It's the only way I access reddit anymore for answers/the last few niche communities that haven't been built up on lemmy yet.
For the occasional time where I’m troubleshooting something and Reddit has the only solution on an “unmoderated sub” or one with 18+ posts, I just change the “www” in the URL to “old”, and get the old, non mobile friendly UI. It lets you bypass the other app popups, etc. Sometimes when you go into a post you’re back in the new UI, and might get another pop up, but backing out or changing the url to “old” usually solves it in my experience.
On another topic, what kind of complete nonsense is that comment section?
It reads like if my phone's autocomplete decided to go haywire one day and start spitting out random associated phrases: "Pablo Escobar... Colombian Drug Lord... District of Columbia...hungry hungry hippo..."
I don't even know which is worse, that these are all bots, or there are actually multiple people who thinks posting these in public is a good idea.
Pablo Escobar lived in Columbia and owned hippos.
Just because you don't get a joke doesn't mean it was written by a bot, you goon.
edit - I just realized that I called esteemed character performer Margot Robbie a goon. Many apologies. I respect your dedication to the craft.
I get all the references, but making a chain of references without any jokes isn't exactly funny.
Meta comedy is overused to the degree that it is difficult to do it well.
Not all of us are blessed with the incredible talent of the writers of the nine-time Golden Globe-nominated motion picture Barbie, two-time Critic's Choice Movie Award-winning actor Margot Robbie.
He lived in Colombia*, which I assume is how D.C. snuck into the comments. Took me a sec to follow that jump.
Maybe they're bots that don't know they are bots
Lmao they removed their somewhat unique award system with charm and replaced it with colored arrows
Each of those arrows is uglier than the last
Are reddit paying contributors, moderators or people creating posts¿? If no then how are they claiming that buying a golden upvote supports contributors
These arrows look like they were AI generated. "Make the arrow look more golden"
Fifty bucks? Are the bits made of gold?
LMAO, imagine paying someone for content and then having a Reddit bot (or human) to copy it here for Lemmy.
Is this the new NFT lol?
This has gotta be the stupidest (and honestly ugliest) alternative to Reddit awards.
Thanks for the crudely gold-colored-brass up vote, kind stranger.
Very MTX-heavy mobile game aesthetic.
Anyone remember Kai’s Power Tools for Photoshop? Those arrows certainly do.
Giving Gold supports the contributors you love
Is... is this implying the person who got gilded gets a cut? Huh?
Yes
Interesting how they never say how much real money gold and upvotes are worth to these contributors

Well, today you learned that this is the current state of Reddit.
This entire screenshot looks horrible.
What a garbage place.
Has no one here heard of redreader
Its still up due to an exemption iirc
Yep. Still not interested.
Reddit wouldn't exist without the third-party clients. The state of Reddit is already being doomed to fail.
Mildly hilarious
