reddit is a fucking dumpster fire if you aren't logged in..... when i first joined lemmy i would still occasionally visit reddit when i got bored, but i wasn't logging in and holy shit its a fucking cesspool!

[–] TubbyMarmot@lemmy.today 1 points 29 minutes ago

It is all bots. The actual remaining humans are there to make the same recycled jokes and argue with each other.

It is nice to not be on it (or here) constantly.

[–] nimble@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 48 minutes ago

The power move is to see that and never return. Let their analytics show you didn't give in and won't be giving them any more telemetry/user data/content.

[–] ScoffingLizard@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

I can't believe how bad it is now. There is no real news. It used to be interesting but it's so watered down that it's basically pointless. Couple that with the quality of major news outlets, and we're basically experiencing a media blackout.

[–] chunes@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I'd add the ubiquity of paywalls these days contributes a lot as well. We used to have it so good.

You can still subscribe to reddit subs using RSS feeds (for now, they're planning to discontinue RSS sadly). Then open it using redlib and LibRedirect browser extension.

Thanks for forcing me reddit. Hello lemmy

Thanks for the content you createdfor us, now log in to see it.

[–] ms_lane@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

Been like that for about month in Aus.

Stop using platforms that are actively locking you out. The reason they keep doing this is because people keep complying.

Mine stopped working yesterday

[–] Texas_Hangover@lemmy.radio 2 points 6 hours ago

Weird. Not doing it to me.

[–] LickMySweatyTaint@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago

Artemis for Reddit still works without an account.

[–] TheEighthDoctor@lemmy.zip 5 points 7 hours ago

I didn't even notice

[–] HerbGrower@slrpnk.net 21 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

Nice. That is just enough of a barrier to stop be using reddit entirely. Not posted in years but sometimes read when bored enough.

[–] lepthesr@sh.itjust.works 7 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Same, I'm 100% here now.

I still lurked since the api bs and after close to 20 yrs on reddit they pull this crap. They can get fucked.

[–] Goforce5@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago

Exactly why I'm here. I used RIF exclusively for a decade, then they killed it. I suffered with their browser version, but now they killed r/all and I ditched for good.

[–] SCmSTR@lemmy.blahaj.zone 101 points 15 hours ago (3 children)

Don't log into an account.

Browse the Internet like normal.

If x.com or reddit.com won't let you view without privacy, they're dead and useless.

Have some spine; lead, and stop following and being led by evil people and companies.

[–] dreamkeeper@literature.cafe 2 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago)

XCancel and redlib will let you browse both without an account, and while cutting out most of their ad revenue as well (bots/marketing accounts notwithstanding of course)

Firefox extensions:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/android/addon/xcancel/

Redlib is also much easier to use on mobile than old reddit, but posts are rate limited to every 12 hours or something. So it actually helps stop you from doom scrolling a bit too.

Lol Tumblr, Pinterest, and Instagram with its nonstop log in request

[–] dil@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 hours ago

Platforms with followers where it makes sense to have them, friends and followers on reddit always seemed odd to me

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 10 points 7 hours ago

Tumblr and Pinterest are on life support.

Insta and reddit still have enough inertia.

If they don't make you log in, they lose sigint.

IF they do make you log in, they burn activity and users

Reddit will eventually fizzle out, Just another in a long chain of bad ideas trading short gains over long life.

[–] zerofk@lemmy.zip 18 points 13 hours ago (6 children)

This is true for YouTube as well.
