After a month of outrage, protests, and unrest from the community, Reddit has finally flipped the switch to shut down some third-party apps, including Apollo, Sync, and BaconReader.

Feels like I’ve taken Apollo for granted :( RIP

If you’re not using Wefwef yet, give it a try. It’s basically an Apollo clone for Lemmy. Still pretty barebones but the dev is super active!

I found so many bugs. I am too new to lemmy and cant figure out which 'subreddits' to report wefwef issues.

It's at [email protected], but ideally it makes the most sense to post them on the GitHub.

Same. It all happened so fast.

Dude… I was just looking at Reddit on the mobile site and I had no idea how bad and intrusive the ads had gotten. Jesus…

The "he gets us" ad being targeted and spammed at vulnerable groups is sickening. I won't support reddit allowing organizations to prey on people.
