In a weird way, I’m almost glad u/Spez decided to make the horrible api changes. I never would have discovered the fediverse otherwise. Personally, I also feel a lot better after quitting Reddit. Even so, fuck u/Spez for being a greedy Piece of shit.

Alas, poor Reddit, I knew them well

Somehow Joey for Reddit seems to still be working???

Is it supposed to shut down as well? The devs might just be waiting till the last moment to revoke the API key if it is.

I don't think I've said it a single time yet. Fuck Spez!

I joined the club as well, deleted my Reddit account!

Fediverse is the future!

10 years of rif down the drain. Keen to learn about the fediverse. It's very overwhelming.

Anyone coming from Apollo, I highly recommend wefwef. It’s impressively close given how short it’s been in development.

Also fuck spez

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Thanks for the recommendation! There’s so many apps in the works, I love it. I have a whole folder lol. I’ve found Thunder and Mlem to be the most overall functional so far but I’m definitely gonna check out wefwef.

I encourage everyone to go see what’s out there as far as third party apps. Fuck it, try them all!

edit: wow you weren’t kidding! it really feels extremely similar to apollo while managing to be a web app?? pretty impressive. although i’d prefer a native version…

fuck u/spez!

Fuck spez, amen. I'm actually really impressed by how good Lemmy is working given that it is still a newer platform. Big fan of FOSS, so that's a huge plus for me as well!

I will be donating to third-party apps and instances to help support this lovely thing we have going on here.

Stay beautiful, y'all!

Am I missing something? My not-yet-updated Infinity for Android app still loads Reddit.

The first rule about test post is that we don't talk about test post. Please ignore.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Been a RiF user for 12 years. Never thought I'd see the day I'd purge my reddit account and not look back. But here we are! Glad to be here with you all, here's to our new communities.

I miss Boost for Reddit. However I believe a Boost For Lemmy is in the works..?
