      You stayed on Reddit after boost stopped? I just couldn’t force myself to use that shitty app. Not judging there are things I would definitely like to use it for but can’t stand that app.

      You can patch boost to work again with Android 10+ though there’s a tutorial somewhere thinking of using that for things I can’t yet find here

          Not only is it a shit fest but I’ve noticed that now they’ve taken one out of Twitter and Facebook’s playbook and on mobile all search result content just directs me to download the app which is really irritating. I refuse to even download that shitty app.

          Fortunately on mobile I was able to open desktop version to read an old article I needed but on computer iirc I couldn’t get it to display anything even though I was already on the desktop version.

          Every change they’re making is pissing off the user base, spez must be wanting to clean it up and sell to advertisers ir something

        Read-only (without nsfw) still works in RiF, I open that from Google searches or I’ll go to the website, when I’m looking for specific things. But other than that it’s been all Lemmy for me since late June.
