Third party Reddit apps just got canned.
Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let's do this! 🤝
Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

Switched yesterday and so far, really liking it. Might even say, it’s better than Reddit at the moment already.
No heavy echo-chamber/ toxicity (yet). Just waiting that it becomes more active with more communities.
I just switch a couple of days ago and I feel more willing to post and comment
My last day on Reddit I shared an excited post about a fun thing in a hobby sub of mine and I got such awful negative responses and people telling me I was attention seeking. It was really ugly. So that was pretty much when I decided to uninstall my Boost app and switch to Lemmy full time
I'm the same way!
What app are you using? So far I've tried Liftoff, but I'm looking for something closer to Relay
On Android, I've tried all of them that are out so far. Summit for Lemmy is pretty good but I'm liking Connect for Lemmy the best so far. I was a Joey for Reddit user.
I'm using Jerboa and have been testing Thunder since yesterday, not bad, but still a bit limited, we need to be patient and give the developers some time, there are already like 10 apps and a couple of forks of third party Reddit apps in active development.
I hope dbrady considers creating a lemmy version of relay. I'd be happy to pay for another pro version.
I've tried most of the android apps available so far. Summit and Connect for Lemmy are my favorites so far. I was a Joey for Reddit user.
The echo chambers are here, they’re just not quite as obvious. And, there are competing echo chambers so sometimes the whiplash between posts is a bit intense lol.
It’s probably because of the instances that some of the subs I’m subscribed to are in lol.
