Reddit and its communities are preparing for a life after the platform's API changes forced popular third-party apps to shut down.

    Since RiF shut down I haven’t logged into Reddit but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t even tempted. I’m giving Lemmy a fair shake for enough time to get used to it before I make any determination.

    I really don’t want to have to use the Reddit app…

      Just add a load of subs as feeds to an RSS reader, that’s what I’ve done. It’s not a perfect experience, but it’s good enough that you can still browse the content and you don’t have to use the app - or even the website for that matter. All you have to do to add is append the url for any sub with /.rss

        sadly people from my country (Indonesia) still mostly use reddit for sharing news and memes, and even though I already made the equivalent community here, it will take a long time for it to have the same level of engagement as the original subreddit

        (un)luckily reddit is blocked in my country so there is so much less toxic user (the toxic one goes to twitter and tiktok)
