Reddit Is Fun was the only way I browsed Reddit on mobile. The mobile app is crap and doesn’t actually properly load posts. I get down a few scrolls and it ends like there isn’t anything else to view.

      I saw a comment saying something like “even if reddit loses 99% of third party app users, they will increase profits by aggressively driving the remaining 1% onto the bag-of-pus official app”. I don’t agree. But even if it were true, it’s already done irreparable damage to reddit. It will just go the way of twitter.

        Looking at the userbase of my subs, less than 1/3 use the Reddit app so they definitely won’t increase profits if the 2/3 leave.

      It’s absolutely wild how quickly they did this too. They could have given a couple months lead time for this to play out but they just decided to pull the rug out from under everyone and act like their hands are tied.

        Typical corpo greed. The entire generation is “point fingers, shift blame” with absolutely no consequences for lack of accountability.

        No one gives a shit, and anyone who benefits is more than happy to swipe another bag of cash whilst looking the other way.
