I as lucky enough to use Apollo. As soon as it stopped working, Reddit became useless to me.

(Or not useful enough to use their horrendous website, old.reddit website or official app)

[–] BakerBagel@midwest.social 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yupp, as soon as i could no longer use RiF, I was done. Trying to mod a small community using the official app was basically impossible.

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Yep. The end of RIF and I went cold Turkey. I had already prepared by deleting/overwriting all of my content so leaving was easy. My three accounts combined had truckloads of karma, glad I am not chasing after that bullshit anymore.

i used a extension to delete all my comments and posts.

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 1 points 1 day ago

Me too. It's been over a year since I did it so I don't recall bthe name of the extension but it had two steps - first, overwriting everything with a gibberish comment, then delete. From what I understand even that isn't very complete but it makes it more difficult for Reddit or other parties to simply restore your stuff.

[–] SeekPie@lemm.ee 5 points 2 days ago

Same but with Infinity. Eternity works the same but uses Lemmy, so that's what I picked.

Boost just stopped working for me yesterday

[–] BevsDad@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

That's what got me back here but then I found out how a custom ReVanced patch could be used to make it work again. The addiction can now continue uninterrupted!

[–] L3G1T1SM3@lemm.ee 1 points 1 day ago

Followed that and I sign in and get an email that I linked the app and logged in but then boost only shows an anonymous account option

Now I just need the timer for my Lemmy app

[–] 50_centavos@lemmy.world 2 points 2 days ago

I get bad service at my job and the reddit app won't even load most of the time. I use Voyager with Lemmy and it loads just fine. I think it's all the ads and trackers that reddit tries to load before the actual content.

[–] cookedslug@lemm.ee 3 points 2 days ago

same boat. it was my favorite app ever and to this day i can’t will myself to delete it. still grieving 💔

voyager is pretty good though
