Third party Reddit apps just got canned.
Third party Reddit apps just got canned.
Influx of Lemmy brothers and sisters incoming. Already 3K and growing deep, we may as well rebuild together. Let's do this! 🤝
Edit : Yes there are workarounds using Revanced. Check the comments for some awesome help on how to do this if you wish! Just know, in the future it will most likely end up being patched annoyingly and I therefore recommend looking forward to the future with us here.

Infinity for reddit user here, as much as I love the app, and the work the developer has done on it, and even though the app will continue on a subscription based model, I have had it with reddit, full fediverse citizen from now on
Same sentiment here. Even if reddit made apps come back, at this point they have completely eroded my goodwill and shown that when they are publicly traded they will cave to investor pressure almost instantly.
I for one think it's a good thing that the main Lemmy devs are so called "tankies" because that makes them that much more unlikely to sell out (not that that would break Lemmy, it still would suck). The software itself is not opinionated so while I think genocide denial is reprehensible, imo the comments about it are generally FUD.
Yeah, I still have it working with the workaround of compiling it with my own API key, but decided not to update this any more. When it stops working like that I am out, not that I actually use it that much anymore.
