I’ve been using Winston as an alternative but it still doesn’t compared to how good Apollo was. My reddit usage overall has decreased simply because of it.
|
|
Same outcome for me but with Relay for Reddit, I could not bring myself to use the official app and now my usage dropped closed to zero which was a good thing, I have more time for productive stuff.
|
|
I generally don’t use apps for things that have a decent website. Reddit was still in that category.
But after they started doing stupid stuff I also moved to Lemmy, and haven’t looked back. |
|
I’ve seen this happening for the city/state subreddits. Maybe the regulars stopped posting, because now it just reads like a Facebook group, constant fear mongering.
|
|
No change for me. I had to stop using Apollo (and Narwhal sucks) but using the browser is fine with me.
I signed up for the $60/yr. Ad-free version and Reddits still great IMO. |
|
Lots of communities died: they “moved” to other platforms but didn’t meaningfully survive the move. Reddit’s conduct didn’t change.
|
|
nothing changed for me
we berated everyone that tried to bring that drama into our subreddits, it’s literally just a forum the mods acknowledged that they have worse tools and that’s still true |
