It's been over since they blocked third party apps. I don't know what you were fighting for, but I wanted to stay on reddit and RIF was reddit, so I fought for RIF. Now that RIF is gone, reddit is gone. There is nothing to fight for. They say "reddit beat down the protest", but that's a bullshit interpretation. The core of the protest just left and Reddit beat down the left overs. Sure, Reddit won in the sense that things are quiet again, but they also have a valid competition now, where they had a monopoly before.

Rules:
- Be civil and nice.
- Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.
Maybe spez would have turned back during the protests but after 3rd party apps officially disconnected, there was no turning back. Next is karma for sale and verified checkmarks for 8$.
The week after the switch linkedin recruiters started poking me about "interesting opportunities at reddit that aren't posted publicly yet". Lmao
I don't think people care anymore here
I haven't logged into my account over there since it all started. I don't care if there's an official protest or not, that was the last straw for me, it was time to leave.
And who would have guessed my emotional health has been better over here and I wouldn't call it an addiction either. No thanks, op can go back to reddit if they like but I'm quite happy here
I logged in on my sinister moderation account yesterday because I charged the tablet I had the revanced patched version of reddit on. Had a ton of notifications, so I checked it out.
Reddit had ousted the entire mod list (I was the only active one) and the new mods had banned me lol.
So I logged right back out
Sadly it sounds like that was the norm. And people like op here say the protest is over and it doesn't matter. Protest is over because reddit strong armed it over. I'll use it if I Google something I need an answer to, but not for a daily scroller anymore
use libreddit or teddit if you need to see an answer on reddit
Didnt libreddit go down due to the API changes? Because it doesnt seem to be working for me
Libreddit/Teddit are rate limited somewhat, just change instance until it works.
I swear, I just saw a video in r/funny and the top comments filter is the same as controversial now.
I log in on my desktop for old.reddit for niche communities. Otherwise its been just Lemmy on my phone ever since we lost the 3rd party apps. I feel like it's been healthier for me as well, not being as addicted to my old reddit feed
nope RIF is dead, i am here now
reddit was fun
It doesn't matter if the protest got rolled over for now, I'm sure it's not the last time they're gonna fuck up. But now the schism is open and the alternative is clear.
And anyway I'm for making our own shit over here, I'm not going back
Don't forget to review bomb the reddit official app. It deserves it anyway.
Go to reddit if you want to op, nobody gives a shit.
Wow. Cool. Damn, dude. That's crazy. Jeez.
I just go back for my splatoon sub to lurk, but considering how awful splatfest has been recently, I think I'm done anyway.
