Reddit

Ive been waiting for Infinity to die and no longer work... but still works.

Granted I havent update it and Im using the fdroid version. Im both surprised and confused.

Looks like Apollo is now dead boys and girls. Feels like having a loved one die

As much as I like browsing the Fediverse with Liftoff, RIF was just such a refined app. At the end RIF was what Reddit could have been.

It's way nicer here on Lemmy anyway

Hello, I'm a reddit user since 2 years ago and i jumped ship on lemmy about a year ago. I still browse reddit for content I can't find over here (niche stuff mainly)

With the recent API disaster my favorite and only app (infinity) got switched to subscription only, let's just say i can't afford that right now. I've heard some apps will stick around for free thanks to reddit "generously" providing API access for free to a selected number of devs.

My question being: what apps will have this free API access and so will be around for free like infinity was just not long ago? (technically the switch happens at midnight but you all get my point)

Just sharing here how I deleted all content from my 30k+ karma account. It's an easy to use, open source, and private way to do it, check out PowerDeleteSuite.

No need to install anything, just bookmark the JS script and run it. This tool was posted here almost 3 weeks ago, but I thought of enforcing it, with the great blackout approaching. The best thing about PDS is that it should remain working since it doesn't use the API.

PDS is able to export your comments, but to export saved items you might want to check Rexport - this one uses the API however, so maybe run it in within the next hours.

I hate having to do this, but Reddit doesn't deserve the community it has.

Going to miss this app

To each their own, but I find this decision really misguided.

It's her money, not mine, so whatever, but l do not expect her to turn a profit in, rather the opposite.

In my view, the cross section of "IfR" users and people willing to subscribe monthly is rather small (especially if the money mostly goes to reddit - assuming I could afford it, I, for instance, would rather fund an open system like Lemmy).

And if Apollo's dev Christian Selig decided that it wasn't worth it with an already established paying user base, who already has a strong culture of subscriptions and exaggerated pricings, and one of the highest volume of users, at what probably was the peak usage of the platform; I don't see how a small app like IfR can survive.

That, or Christian made a pretty expensive mistake...

Having worked at a company that had a massive influx of GDPR requests we weren’t prepared for, this one could actually cause them some trouble if Reddit don’t have that process properly automated.

This is the first time in about 15 years that he will finally see the sunlight.

A comprehensive mapping of old subreddits to new communities.

I last logged in on reddit before the storm, to ask for a copy of my data that I just got. I had to log back in to download it, and immediately logged off. I'd really love to see spez getting 0,1 USD per stock.
