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

    App 98% of the time. If I can’t use Apollo, I won’t use reddit anymore. The website sucks and the official app is garbage now.

    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.

        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 Apollo 99% of the time… ( RIP alien blue ) and old.reddit 1% of the time. I REFUSE to use the official reddit app as it is literal hot garbage and i’d rather have 1,000 root canals than to use it even for a second.

    Not thrilled about starting over and finding a new alternative but I’ve done it in the past (RIP Digg) so bring it. I hope reddit burns to the ground for this.

    Reddit is Fun on Android mobile, old.reddit on desktop with RES. The design of new Reddit is atrocious, they only show 3 comments so you have to click more and the ads are obnoxious. The official app is pushed on you as much as possible and is used as the default for opening browser links, even if you tell it otherwise in the device settings. I uninstalled it because it didn’t like coexisting with RiF.

    I used to use Infinity, but with the api changes I use Jerboa now (just for a different service :p)

    Neither. I was banned from /r/Android because I prefer a Google Pixel over a Samsung device (yay, corrupt mods!)

    I forgot, and I commented using one of my many alts. I was temporarily suspended from Reddit as a whole for “ban evasion”.

    My friends visited, who have Reddit accounts, and when they connected to my WiFi Reddit immediately perma-banned ALL of us, including all of my brand accounts for my company.

    Reddit allowing random strangers to essentially get you perma-banned because you prefer a different phone is ridiculous. 🥲

      I also got a ban after being on the site for over a decade. In a popular city’s subreddit there was a news article about an FBI agent that had to shoot a pitbull in a park. The pit was not on a leash and started attacking the agent’s dog. The pit also attacked another dog in this park a week prior. The agent shoots the dog and everyone in the comments is going crazy about a wild, dangerous dog being shot.

      I said they should’ve nuked the dog and got perma’d. Poof. Ten year account on a throwaway comment, no warning. The mod reported it to reddit admins and then it was removed for “inciting violence”. So now I’m just sitting here with my nukes trying to find a new place to chat.

      Also, API calls. lol

        That reminds me, before I got perma IP-banned, I got account banned for a comment I made.

        It was on a post of someone who died from colon cancer. I commented how important it is to get your ass checked, and that account was perma-banned for “bullying”.

        It’s quite interesting to see all of the hate speech and terrible comments on Reddit that don’t seem to get picked up by Reddit, yet here I am, IP perma-banned for the most ridiculous things lol

    I only use Apollo, I can’t stand the website. I’m testing out Lemmy and Kbin as alternatives given the API news. I used to be an avid Alien Blue user and am still livid Reddit bought it only to completely kill it off and release a completely different and much worse app experience.

    90% of the time mobile via RIF, the remainder is desktop with old reddit + RES. Once the API apocalypse hits it will be 0% of the time mobile, and we’ll see if I even bother on the desktop after that.

    Apollo for me, and it would be cool if they’ve made the same one for Lemmy as well! Also, if any of the Apollo devs are here lurking I would like to say thank you for creating the app! <3

      I also use Apollo - I actually think it is just one developer. Hopefully we get a good iOS app soon; I saw someone is working on an open source one but it looked like it had a long way to go.

    I’m at my desktop a lot and always have an old.reddit tab up. If I’m anywhere else, I use a third party Android app (Sync Pro, Baconreader before that). I don’t know if I’ll leave Reddit, but that’ll be wholly dependent on where the users/content go.
