    For me it’s simple: no sync, no reddit.

    I’m never going to use their app.

      Same. Plus not many people here yet so I got a sweet username.

        Too bad we don’t get userids so we could boast about our low-digit uid for extra cred, like back in the Slashdot days (low 5-digit Slashdot user here :p)

          The bragging rights of a 4 or 5 number ICQ user.

        Of course, if you wanted a name that was always taken you could just join another federated site. For example, you’re FloridaMan@kbin.social but there could also be a FloridaMan@lemmy.world, etc.

      Yep. The day the Boost app on my phone stops working is the day I cease visiting Reddit entirely. It’s about sending a message.

      Yeah, I switched from RedReader to Slide to Infinity, never even considered the official Reddit app, it’s so slow and there’s so much ad there.

      Definitely. No Infinity, no Reddit. Lemmy, kbin, others. Reddit can go jump. Exciting times!

      Damn, nearly forgot - fuck spez.
