    I hope we get better content. I’m really tired of all the posts on the frontpage being meta. Like i had to scroll to find anything about the student loan news. I go to reddit and boom I get actual content still.

    … i want conversations about things that aren’t lemmy or reddit. … memes are cool but man most of the frontpage that isn’t meta is memes. … Fingers crossed it gets better soon.

      I agree… but this is probably the last big reddit thing for a while, so I think the reddit and lemmy stuff will die down from now

    I was still using Slide, I was hoping it was under the radar enough that it would squeak by but nope. Goodbye Reddit. I was user 4163 16 years ago, and now it’s time to get the fediverse up and going.

    This is so short sighted by the Reddit C suite. It makes literally no sense for them to kill these apps when every argument they made for killing them was in bad faith.

    I’ve now been tricked twice into breaking my Reddit boycott just to check and see if Infinity still works or not, and it still does.

    Maybe Infinity just has enough fewer users than something like Apollo that Infinity hasn’t reached the request limit to where it’s been shut off yet.

    (I don’t actually mean I was tricked. ;) )

      iirc infinity will stop working on 7/1 as well. possibly switching to a subscription model with price tbd

      Currently you can type libreddit.hu/r/ in front of any subreddit and avoid Reddit directly, not sure what’s happening to that domain with the changes.

        I meant that I loaded up Infinity specifically to check and see if Infinity still worked or not. Not to access any particular Reddit content. But Infinity still worked for me after I first saw this thread.

        Edit: Ah, and I just realized I might have misunderstood you, not the other way around. Sorry about that.

      From what i heard recently, infinity is going to be subscribtion based from now on… so probably devs didnt stop app from working but are yet to implement subsciption

        Interesting. I’m not sure how that works with an Open Source app. Will the API key be in the source repo? Will there be a server that Infinity routes through that adds the API key to the request? Will future versions of Infinity be proprietary? I’ll probably look into it at some point.

    I noticed ReddPlanet was down today. Just checked it out of curiosity. Haven’t been on Reddit in a few weeks.

    Been a redditor since 2010, RiF user from about 2015 on, then Apollo user since 2020. There’s a few work related subs I’ll still visit occasionally on a web browser (using old.reddit of course) but other than that I’m officially done with it. On the bright side - I should be more productive and on my phone less!

    I’m here from using Joey for Reddit. I’m surprised it seems like it wasn’t as popular as the other third party apps. It was great for me

    Rip sync. You were the best.

    Looking forward to the Lemmy version
