Spez hates him for discovering this one weird trick.
Fuck u/spez
But I like him/her/them even more!
Still have Apollo installed, and just installed Mlem. At this point Iβm not going to bother with going back to the frontpage of unawnsered questions
i haven't mustered up the emotional fortitude to uninstall rif yet. still, i seem to have gotten out of the habit of absent mindedly opening it
That was me w baconreader for sure.
Now I have one Lemmy app for when lemmy.world is working, and another for when it isn't.
Haven't open baconreader in a while, but haven't uninstalled it either.
I replaced RiF by Jerboa but I'm still craving the endless doomscrolling of askreddit
Noooo I gotta write "fellate fuck spez" so other ppl on reddit see that I am totally totally against reddit. Just gonna buy some reddit gold to really drive home the point!!!
In dark mode, that actually looks like a LOL LOLing through space.
I swear I haven't had psychadellics. In fact, it'd probably be a mesmerising trap on psychadellics.
Phone text, in general, is interesting on psychedelics. For me, text just turns into an incomprehensible squiggles that look kind of like letters but absolutely aren't. Things that look dull usually tend to stay that way during a trip. Bright colors and tie-die are awesome though.
For me everything's clear but text pops out and even flat UI takes 3D form. The glow is also pretty. The keyboard is the most fascinating part because it looks big and clear to fit the whole alphabet, and so my thumbs are fucking huge. Haven't tried outside of dark mode, think I wouldn't like it.

Well, delete it?
And don't forget to leave it a negative review.
I am in disbelief, the last time I used reddit this was a solved issue, and now they've gone and unsolved it??
Regressions are a side effect of big buisness planning! πͺ
it's evolving, just backwards!
It's gone to Warp 10 and is turning into a newt!
The fuck is "3 people are typing"
They should stop
Reddit's attempt to pique your interest
Reddit has typing indicators. I did not know that.
This is fucking hilarious dude. And some still wonder why so many people were up in arms haha
I'm slowly reaching the point where I wonder how the majority of mobile users apparently always used reddit official "app". Like... there's more effective ways to torture yourself if you're into that..
"accessibility? what accessibility?" - reddit app
Hey, at least they're being equitable about it, and making the site equally inaccessible for everyone!
Ah yes, you have reached the Loom. The hidden gateway into the threadiverse. One must strum the threads to the ballad of federation to find the hidden nymph, Lemmy. Guiding one towards the oasis of --- okay im done. lol
Get that app outta your phones mouth
Look at all those gorgeous lines, truly the peak of UX engineering
Kind of like The Matrix if The Matrix was braindead.
And you notice that becauseβ¦. YOU WERE ON THE REDDIT APP! Uninstall that crap! (Sorry not sorry for all caps)
I'm glad that I don't use Reddit anymore, unless forced.
Even when forced, I feel dirty.
Nobody forcing you my dude/lady.
Forced, no. But as a dev, Google leads me to a lot of reddit posts for troubleshooting and discussion.
Oof, I hear ya there.
Love your username BTW, I've actually got a copy of the album somewhere..
Reddit was an essential part of the internet. Thankfully it's been mostly archived.
Losing the data from Reddit would be a catastrophe on the level of the library of Alexandra.
The people who run Reddit know all of this and thus the reason they want some much money for things like the API.
I remember before I got a third party app that the official app would only show up to 10 nested comments. This meant if you replied to the last comment, it would never actually show up for mobile app users, since there was no "view more comments" button or anything.
So it would seem that they finally fixed that issue...
π€£π€£π€£
That's a lotta lines of shit LOL!
I accidentally reinstalled it a few weeks ago. Never opened it. Today I got a push notification and Iβve never opened the app of logged in. What a bunch of shit.
Yeah, the random push notifications were the main reason I uninstalled it before the whole API thing even started. I was logged in but never used it because I had Apollo. The only reason I even had it was because Apolloβs βOpen in Apolloβ function didnβt seem to work 100% of the time.
The official app would send me push notifications for trending posts on subs I wasnβt even subscribed to. I quickly got tired of it, and uninstalled it after like a week. Never looked back, and switched entirely to Apollo. Once the API shit hit the fan, I walked away and havenβt missed it. Looking back at all the background activity that the official app had, (itβs horrible for battery life because of all the massive amounts of telemetry it sends) Iβm half convinced that the push notifications were simply an attempt to keep the app open in the background. Like if you force-closed it, theyβd occasionally send you notifications simply to get you to open the app for a second so it can run in the background again.
I was getting emails also. All of a sudden reddit decided I needed to know what subreddits were trending via email. I'd tell it to quit sending me that shit and it would send them again after like 2 weeks.
At least for Android you can turn off push notifications.
Long press the notification in question on the top pull down menu and pick your options.
Applicable for all apps, not just Reddit. Somhandy to silence irritating Uber Eats or Twitter crap.
You can do that in iOS too. But having notifications enabled for messages was nice. The problem was that the app didnβt have an obvious way to disable only the spammy notifications.
The hottest of garbage
yeah its so slow and buggy. i was on boost then all this shit happebed.
boost for lemmy when.
Not sure I'm going to support it when there all plenty of decent free third party apps. Been using Jerboa since I made the switch, and have enjoyed the interface quite a bit.
I just can't get behind the idea of paying for the ad free experience. Still support the developer, but it better not be like Sync's $20.
Their app really is fucking bad. I don't get who thought it was good enough to stand alone
Better let some mods have absolute control of it.
Just another reason to use Lemmy: our's is a rainbow! π³οΈβπ
As someone who is visually impaired, separating by colors is much easier to keep track on
I'm pretty sure it's been like this for a long time, too
I remember getting a new phone and somehow i downloaded reddit instead of boost. I thought Ah come on, how bad can it be, let's try one more round. 5 minutes in I ended up like this and noped out of there. I still miss my reddit communities a bit, but as a mobile user there is no going back.
As a solution, you can always have it being read to you by the accessibility feat- ohh wait.

Never seen official reddit app before, doesn't look good.
We know, that's why most of us are here
r/softwaregore lmao
But also, I know Sync is gone but there are other third party apps still clinging on like Relay. So why are you still using the official app?
Sync? Gone? Sync moved to Lemmy and it's gorgeous.
I was going to say. Once you were 6(?) replies deep Sync would show "Continue thread" and open in a window so you wouldn't get that happening...
Thanks for the hard work mate, I hear the next beta is gonna blow us all away. Also I'm looking forward to posting.
They prefer investing in crypto shit before fixing that trash app
It has more lines than a play.
Whose garbage app? Never heard of this "red dit" place. What's a "dit" and why isn't it some other color?
I think I understand where you made the mistake, itβs not red dit, I think itβs supposed to be re ddit. Itβs where they βdid itβ again (or βre did itβ) but like All those other early 2000βs sites they just dropped a vowel so itβs just re ddit.
Ah, a common mistake to make. It's not 're-ddit,' Im pretty sure it comes from 'reddi-t' as in "Ready Tea" but like many early 2000s websites they tried to make it sound more approachable, so it's just 'reddi-t' as your cup of tea will be cool enough to drink by the time it's transmitted all your data.
Even a Nokia phone is better
Just go to the permalink of the lower level comme... oh, right.
Since when was the Reddit app green? Is this even the actual Reddit app?
You should try Lemmy bruh. Since you already installed it, write a one star playstore review then delete and never look back.
I dunno, it seems like it accomplishes its primary purpose well enough? Too bad for you that purpose is to deliver ads to the user to see while doomscrolling...and nothing else.:-(
If you're that deep into a thread, it ain't worth it anyway.
It's like Tumblr never died.
Maybe they think so low of their users that they don't expect more than two levels of nesting.
Stop using it then π€·ββοΈ

Sync? Gone? Sync moved to Lemmy and it's gorgeous.
And then there's the cracked sync client that just works... https://github.com/Liz-chan/sink-for-everyone/releases/
Apparently it's using the API key of some official function (or even app?) and spoofs the corresponding user agent, so it can't be easily detected.
Sync won't be updated any longer, so once reddit messes with the API again, functions will break eventually. But for now it works.
Why are either of you still on reddit at all?..
NGL, I had this happen with sync a few times in the past
That's definitely true, but Sync also fixed it a while back.
Sync is also one dev while reddit employs over 50 devs for their mobile app alone.
They're fucking it up 50X faster than a single dev could accomplish.
Oh, and they have all the access to the backend that no third party app developer has. What a fucking pack of amateurs.
I think the number of devs compounds the fuck up rate.
There's no way they've got 50 devs working on that.
You're right, apparently it's more like 200.
I was going to say. Once you were 6(?) replies deep Sync would show "Continue thread" and open in a window so you wouldn't get that happening...
