The incompetency would be hilarious if not for the fact that it's actively harmful to online communities

News and Discussions about Reddit
Welcome to !reddit. This is a community for all news and discussions about Reddit.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules
Rule 1- No brigading.
**You may not encourage brigading any communities or subreddits in any way. **
YSKs are about self-improvement on how to do things.
Rule 2- No illegal or NSFW or gore content.
**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

MODERATORS
So dumb.
PS - It's quite awful reading reddit after being here. I uninstalled RES, and good lord reading the comment chains now is ghastly.
BRACE YOURSELF!
ADA lawsuit incoming.
I never moderated a sub, but I am legally blind. Apollo had fantastic accessibility options while the official offering is garbage and makes using Reddit not only less enjoyable, but down right uncomfortable for some of us.
When the announcement came that Apollo was shutting down, I uninstalled and wiped my Reddit account. It's been over a month now.
My only issue is I haven't found an iOS app for kbin yet. So I'm basically just using the web version on PC.
There is a list of all the Lemmy apps here: https://lemmy.world/post/465785
It shows the current ones, announced apps, apps in development, etc. Across all platforms. Lots of devs have moved here from reddit, including Sync, Boost and Slide.
From what I've read from other users Wefwef is supposed to be very similar to Apollo, so you could try that one.
I hope you find what you're looking for!

They should sue under ADA
Now I'm starting to wonder that's why they let red reader continue. Omg...
Is this legal in the US?
The US courts are currently split on this. The 9th and 11th circuits hold that a business website must correspond to a physical business to enforce the ADA on them. The 1st Circuit has required fully online businesses to also have ADA accessible websites. There are exponentially more lawsuits on thus issue each year so expect the Supreme Court to address it in the next couple of seasons.
(almost) everyone saw that coming.
