At least with Boost (my favorite reddit & Lemmy app).
This lets you circumvent ads/recommendations and other bs, too.
Reminder: nobody gives a shit about reddit
This is a reddit community…
This is a community about reddit discussion/news. Most posts are about how they censor, monetize and essentially wage war with their communities #luigi. I don’t need “reminders” to go back.
They circumvent reddit ads by paying reddit directly for the API (using their own ads). It still funds reddit.
No, they don’t… I don’t know why everyone seems to think that.
My Boost has been throwing
403 Blockedfor like a week now… My Reddit usage has significantly dropped.https://github.com/wchill/revanced-patches
A guide on fixing that.
Ahhh, I missed the part where I have to patch a clean app and not my pre-patched version. Idk if I’ll go back to it though - it’s driven me to use Lemmy more, and it looks like a lot of communities are making their way over here - many more since the last time I looked.
What you mean ? I use RedReader for 1 year now from F-Droid without any problems. But i started opting out due to USA shit. Thank god, they started making crazy shit over there now (Reddit company), people blocked, reported for up-voting, and other stuff.
But then you would be using reddit… gross.
Oh boy I’ve always wanted to still use a site full of bots that doesn’t respect its users and censors the shit out of everything!
You don’t even need to patch the Android app called Red Reader. It works by default. Not super pleasing to look at, but it has always done the job. I think they managed to squeak by the API shutdown thing because they are headed toward blind users, but sighted users can use it too.
Yeah Red Reader got a special exemption as an accessibility oriented app. I use it for whenever I need to check Reddit for something (typically football/soccer news). It’s ugly as sin which is good because it makes me less inclined to stick around as long.
