News and Discussions about Reddit

Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules


Rule 1- No brigading.

**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **

YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.



Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

This is what I've been using. Featureful AND free/libre.

How did they last so long.

They wanted to switch over to a subscription model. I assume many people like me who used to use infinity just bailed.

Edit: I actually dug up the source for this. It still worked for non subscribers until now. Apparently that will stop on august 30th. The headline is misleading. Starting in September it will be the aforementioned subscription model.

Name of the app almost checks out

To me it just almost seems that Reddit didn't cut off all apps at the same time.

I surmise this was about as long as they could stay solvent given the new API call charge rate Reddit implemented.

Honestly there's gotta be a discrimination case in here somewhere. One stupid decision ruined a ton of jobs.

How soon before HTTP(S) stops working for reddit? They seem determined to shut down everything.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

Anyone who has used subscriptions have probably realized by now how much money is just wasted.

I hope redditors migrate to this app and create lemmy a bit alive, reddit bans me for giving an opinion

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

Hey OP, can you actually go and read the original post before reposting it here? The title is just plain false.

So if someone really wants to use an app for Reddit... Why not just use RedReader? That one has an exception due to havingb better accessibility support, and seems to do everything that any other app does.
