I’m on wefwef and was about to instantly uninstall
Same, saw the huge ad and promoted post and did a double take, like "Did I open the wrong app?".
For a moment i thought i got an ad and was about to uninstall my current lemmy app instantly lol
🤢🤮
It looks disgusting.
The only thing I miss about the official app is seeing those ads promoting Christianity and promptly reporting them as hate speech.
That doesnt do anything anyway. You alwere kinda wasting your own time.
I dunno, if it feels cathartic then maybe it was worth it to them.
Man I hate the official reddit app so much. Random ads look like real posts.
For me it’s all the stupid nfts.
Oh wow I've not seen the official app in years. That's insane, who on earth is happy using this!?
Sadly, there's a shit ton of people who don't know any better and will stick with reddit as it slowly dies
UPDATE: Apparently Infinity still works across-the-board.
F-Droid keeps nagging me to update Infinity (which I refuse to do). Currently my Galaxy A32 5G is running v5.4.2 and it's still showing up-to-date content every time I refresh. I know from a security standpoint this is a bad idea, but until we come up with a better solution, F-Droid still has it.

Both the APK I download directly from F-Droid and the one I pulled from my phone via ADB share this SHA256SUM hash.
Babe charge your phone you're making me nervous
