Mabuhay at maligayang pag-alis sa Lemmy! ✈️

An abandoned community for the Philippines and all things Filipino! 🇵🇭

Started out as a Reddit alternative during the blackout from Jun 12-21, 2023 with over 1k members in just a few days. Fizzled faster than the "I Didn't Do It" kid after a month until it became the internet's Centralia in less than a year.

Me: I never use official reddit app ever since I procure my phone 2 years ago, Using infinity is my first choice in browsing reddit in mobile, stealth is the second but I love infinity that I go back using it, in desktop I use teddit.net but if I want to post I use the official website on Firefox with uBlock Origin to deter the ads and trackers, now I'll never go back on reddit if their decision is final to charge developers for their API, because Infinity, Stealth and Teddit devs probably will shutdown as they are only solo/small teams that just want to make the digital world a better place they can't pay for api donating to them will only do good for a short time as the API is fucking expensive and breaks the rule of FOSS philosophy

this excludes Apollo and other Close Source software that uses reddit's api though as I never use it so I can't say things about them

Reddit fucked their mobile web, even using uBlock on my Firefox Mobile. They forced us to use their bloatware, intrusive app.

Even their redesigned Reddit desktop web is fucked. I was hoped new Redditors never experience these bullshitteries, but unfortunately spez (fuck u/) is unstoppable, and he can lie (watch out old.reddit shutdown)

Firefox mobile is slow af, reddit is faster in brave mobile though if you want to use it on mobile

Chromium and Firefox mobile browsers are equally the same, atleast on my mid-range Android device. I've been using Firefox both PC and mobile since 2016 pa, and yes, before it was shite. Seeing it improving over the years is really telling.
