I hate the official app with the fire of 1,000 suns. So if my only options are using the official app or leaving the site completely I’m leaving completely✌️
Reddit’s official app, and in fact Reddit’s official website is a hugely compromised experience, and I suspect the only reason they haven’t gone further is that they don’t want to push people to the alternatives. However this latest move to restrict the available alternatives seems like the beginning of the end to me and their app and site are only going to get worse.
That’s why I’m here at least!
Dat Lemmy puss feels so much tighter tho

I’m only a 6 year clubber on Reddit, but using RIF for most of it, couldn’t stand how the app was going. Nowadays it’s the content as well. Going to be exploring around here now
you soon of a removed, I’m in
Reddit’s official app and new reddit are awful experiences and actively hostile to the user. It’s nice to see a site that understands this.
I hate new reddit so much. I just opened it. On my 1440p monitor I see 3 posts. Old reddit I can see 18 posts on one page.
I never understood this argument. I can’t read more than one post at a time anyways and images are not immediately visible in the list view. What makes you want 18 posts visible at once?
So you can select the post you want to actually look at instead of having to scroll and scroll to find one that interests you. Like in a classical forum post, essentially.
That and I have tendonitis so less scrolling past crap I don’t care about means I have less pain / no pain.
I have a question. As most of you probably already know, i reached that level on reddit where karma can be converted 1:1 to dollars (not that hard tbh), but here looks like there’s no karma to farm? How can I pay my rent?
This might be added in an future update? This place will change alot coming months for sure.
I would actually be willing to pay a small, reasonable monthly fee to not have to see ads and to be able to continue using Boost for Reddit like I have been for the last 7 years with the experience unchanged. What I will not do is pay to use reddit’s official app without ads simply because it’s going to be the only choice with their horrible fee structure that will kill all third party apps. As soon as they kill Boost, my account there goes dark…
Hey look, a fellow boost refuge.
What I’d actually rather do is have all of reddit pay devs of a federated platform like this one or similar a small amount to have a platform without ads.
I use(d) and love boost! I mostly based the ui in jerboa after it, because it’s so beautiful.
Shame it’s always been closed source.
Great job man. You’ve made me forget I’ve switched sites.
Thanks! <3
