    I think the no third party apps on Reddit is the best thing ever for fediverse - even if I wanted to return, I can’t :)

      Also, there’s only so much- “he shot himself three times in the back of the head and fell out of a window” and “I also choose this guy’s dead wife” and “if you owe the bank $1000 it’s your problem and if you owe the bank $1m it’s their problem” and “banana for scale” and “take my poor man’s gold” …ad nauseam, ad infinitum.

      I’ve tried going back. I loved Reddit. But it’s a recycling dump at this stage.

              Yeah I feel like the upvote button is ignored by these people, it may be more affected. Personally I was never particularly bothered by it, but it doesn’t really warrant a comment.

              I like constructive discussion, please feel free to add your own thoughts, but don’t say you agree and leave us hanging.

        I don’t know, I’m going to miss “banana for scale”. That one never got old (for me).

        If Lemmy communities have such traditions, I’m looking forward to finding out

      Yep without third party apps reddit is worthless to me. A lot of my time spent there was on mobile or a tablet using RIF.

        I use reddit for some niche subs that have no active users on Reddit. Infinity works on Android where you can patch it with your own API key. So that’s what I use. I don’t use reddit in my iPhone at all.

      On top of that, some of those apps are coming to Lemmy. Sync just launched and if a big iOS one like Apollo were to follow, then I think a lot of users will come over just to check out the apps. At which point a lot of them will realize they like Lemmy and just stay here.
