“This is the most neckbeard thing I’ve ever seen in my life. Reddit is a business trying to make money, no shit they are going to get rid of third party apps eventually. Welcome to the real world. You are not being oppressed. This protest has zero effect on anything other than just inconveniencing users. If losing third party apps ruins your reddit experience (oh no) just find another app or website.”
I know it’s not great, but is it really THAT bad? Is it honestly worse than navigating Lemmy?
Don’t get me wrong, I’m DONE with Reddit. But is all of this really just because they don’t like the official app or is there something more?
The app is riddled with trackers and unnecessary analytics. I’ve heard people talking about their PiHoles creating multi GB log files a few days after installing the app because there is that much crap being filtered out.
