FYI, there is a way to use ReVanced Manager to import your own API key into baconreader and other 3rd party apps:

Thanks! Just tried it and it works perfectly. But, reddit didn't feel the same anymore I can't place my finger on why that is the case.

The content seems to have changed in the past month or so. I see better content on lemmy, at least stuff that I'm interested in.

Scrolling through my feed on Baconreader now felt like Facebook for some reason. Maybe some of my subs are still private, I don't know, but things have definitely changed.

yeah I agree. I've noticed a real decline in quality too. I think it's because the entire site is just bots reposting old content and bots commenting old comments
