Well, this is the last straw for me, I'm moving away from lemmy.world, thank you so far and good luck.

Yesterday I patched the Reddit app with revanced, I figured that if I went there from time to time at least I'd avoid ads. Omfg that app is a bigger piece of shit that when I diched it a year and half ago, unintuitive mess, horrible UX and UI, slow AF, makes my phone hot as if I was playing a game wtf, even without the API protest that app deserves all the 1 starts it can get.

Threads already has more content and engagement then us

Do they really thought?, I'm not a Twitter/mastodon user, but I read from comments that all their content right now is cringe influencer and shilling stuff.

This is how I have it in boost, comment controls (vote, reply etc) hidden by default, simple tap to show/hide those controls, long tap to collapse comments.

But Ren & Stimpy was never meant for kids afaik.

Wow I just tried it and this update has all the features I need, really a great improvement over the last one, may be the time to leave bismuth.

One thing I still miss is a monocle layout, basically every window is maximized, anyway great work!

qView simple and fast image viewer, I don't need the bells and whistles of most image viewer apps, qView is a simple to the point app like old feh but integrates well will KDE.

I still go to reddit to check the dumpster fire, and a specific game community in my alt, since is corporate owned I don't expect them to move here. but for everything else I don't browse Reddit since the blackout.

I'm more of a lurker but I'm more compelled to comment here because of the default sort algorithm in comments, you get a mix of newer and upvoted, so even if I comment on an older post, or one with a lot of comments I don't feel like I'm shouting to the void.

Anyone who is really a pirate will immediately see this is the best route of course, abandon reddit, why would you want to support a shitty company? like, would you pay Nintendo premium for a 30y old ROM with a inferior emulation?.

Reddit is going to shit anyways with their policies so it wouldn't surprise me if they ban communities like r/piracy in the future, moving to an independent and resilient platform like Lemmy is the best choice.

Sure, like when imgur was changing it's policy recently, people were asking for alternatives, the first search result of a suggested hosting site (don't remember which) in duck duck go was an album of a child in swimsuit doing suggestive poses, pretty disturbing, that's a clear line I agree with.
