Because I only use web, on mobile and desktop. I can't live without adblock.

I mostly use Infinity for Reddit (where Jerboa for Lemmy clearly draws a lot of inspiration from)

Sometimes I also use reddit on my PC but the site is horrible there and the old site, while not as buggy, doesn't look great.

Same, Infinity is what I stick to, and when it's gone, i'm gone from Reddit

[–] VeryAverageChef@lemmy.one 0 points 1 year ago

I'm part of the Infinity crew too. I've tried so many clients and Infinity just ticks all the boxes for me

I use Infinity for 90% of my reddit use. It's so good in my opinion that I actually prefer it over the web UI. Makes me wish they supported Lemmy.

I used to browse on the desktop quite a lot, but I switched to mostly using rif over the years. I actually don't even mind the new ui on desktop, it's just that I try to be somewhat productive when sitting at my PC and mostly default to Reddit on the train etc (and at work but pls don't tell anyone)

I'm using the Sync app, without it Reddit is a mess. I can't wait to see how it turns out for Reddit if they actually ditch 3rd party app support.

[–] umrath@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

Mostly via Apollo (app). The webpage is ok. I use it occacially. The Reddit native app is crap. I don't even have it installed (anymore).

If Apollo ceases to work, I will delete my Reddit account.

Am mostly using sync. No ads because I bought it a looong time ago

[–] moonleay@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

I use old.reddit on Desktop, Infinity on mobile and Apollo on my tablet. When Reddit finally shuts down their API for free users then I will be gone.

Speaking of apps are there any good ones for lemmy on ios? I saw Remmel mentioned but could not for the life of me find it on the US App Store?

[–] sexy_peach@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

you can try this one maybe, it's still new: https://feddit.de/post/699925

old.reddit.com with RES on the desktop, Relay on Android. Don't know what I will do on the toilet if paid-API comes and the clients go. The official one is crap.

On phone I use Infinity for Reddit. Don't know if I will use their app, when 3rd-party-clinents won't work anymore.

[–] tux0r@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

On a real computer, the web; on my iPhone, I use Apollo (because reddit totally does not want me to use its mobile website).

[–] remington@beehaw.org 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

At home I use the web...away from home I use Apollo.

[–] nachtigall@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago

Same here, but once Apollo is no more, I’ll probably won’t use Reddit on mobile anymore. Their own client is so bad.

[–] Penguincoder@beehaw.org 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I use a third party app on my phone, and old.reddit on the desktop. Never could get used to 'new' and don't like how the screen real estate is on it. Ad block for the home network AND Ublock Origin on mobile and desktop are a must have for me.

[–] lysy@szmer.info 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How do you use adblock for the home network?

[–] nachtigall@feddit.de 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Check out pihole or AdGuard Home. They serve as DNS server for your home network and can filter unwanted connections.

Also dnsforge.de (though it leaves no room for customization)
