Maybe I just miss Reddit is Fun, not Reddit, but I still have RiF installed (I just can't delete it) and it still "works". I can't sign in or participate, but fuck I miss browsing everything. I've definitely replaced it with Kbin, but opening the RiF app just gives me sadness. Fuck spez.

I really miss the dog videos, took me a week or so to notice that lemmy doesn't have any, all the porn is garbage because we can't have videos and none of the apps (except kinda liftoff) have in-app video players for sites like redgifs.

But no one is posting videos because most people aren't going to watch them if they have to go to a website, I won't.

I hope boost releases with in-app support and the option to hide certain posts like it used to. Then I can just tick videos and go on my merry way.

Video hosting is one of the most bandwidth-intensive things you can do on the Internet. Most of these fediverse admins are hobbyists running servers from their basement or on cloud hosting from money out of their own pockets.
