The app I was using stopped working.
Weird. I had the same problem.
Same
Weird, even donating $5 to the app didn’t fix it
You can use the Dawn app from the catalog F-droid.
Apollo was rip.
Also out of principle.
It became more and more disgusting. The API changes do not affect me at all but I took the opportunity and deleted my account there. Part out of protest, part out of not liking nowadays Reddit anymore.
Was he better before? Other than changing the API and adding advertising, there don’t seem to be any changes to the web version. But I, as a newbie to this social network, may not know something.
I left Reddit due to third-party app issues driven by greed
i am the consequences of u/spez’s actions.
No more RIF means I can’t use it on the shitter no more.
The app I used stopped working and the official reddit app is garbage that wouldn’t stop giving me push notifications for inane nonsense.
Enshitification
The API changes didn’t really have an effect on me since I had always used the official Reddit app, and only switched to Apollo a week before the blackout. The reason I left is because Reddit’s response was really out of touch and insulting to its users. After coming to the fediverse I realised just how horrible Reddit has become and I don’t plan on going back.
I took a break because of the blackout. I swore the site off forever when I saw Spez’s response to the blackout.
They killed third party apps and I’m not letting the official Reddit app within a mile of my phone.
Not all third-party apps have stopped working. For example, the Dawn app from F-droid works well. There is also a Stealth application that does not have the ability to log in to your account.
Yeah…bthat the same reason why i quit too…
Because fuck Spez, that’s why.
I never really liked it much - too many assholes, astroturfers and bots - so I was always open to moving somewhere else, as soon as I found somewhere I liked better. And I liked the threadiverse better.
Didn’t want to use their bloated app, really.
I had wanted to quit before then, so their war on third-party developers just helped that along.
I left before the API fiasco because I was addicted. Had a brief, beautiful couple of months away from platforms like reddit. Now addicted to Lemmy instead.
What can you say about the social network Mastodon?
I think it’s the best replacement for Twitter if you’re someone trying to build an audience or if you want to be one of the audience. I’ve realized that I’m not either so I don’t really use it much.
