In dark mode, that actually looks like a LOL LOLing through space.
I swear I haven't had psychadellics. In fact, it'd probably be a mesmerising trap on psychadellics.
Well, delete it?
I am in disbelief, the last time I used reddit this was a solved issue, and now they've gone and unsolved it??
The fuck is "3 people are typing"
This is fucking hilarious dude. And some still wonder why so many people were up in arms haha
"accessibility? what accessibility?" - reddit app
Ah yes, you have reached the Loom. The hidden gateway into the threadiverse. One must strum the threads to the ballad of federation to find the hidden nymph, Lemmy. Guiding one towards the oasis of
okay im done. lol
Look at all those gorgeous lines, truly the peak of UX engineering
I'm glad that I don't use Reddit anymore, unless forced.
Even when forced, I feel dirty.
Nobody forcing you my dude/lady.
And you notice that because…. YOU WERE ON THE REDDIT APP! Uninstall that crap! (Sorry not sorry for all caps)
I accidentally reinstalled it a few weeks ago. Never opened it. Today I got a push notification and I’ve never opened the app of logged in. What a bunch of shit.
Yeah, the random push notifications were the main reason I uninstalled it before the whole API thing even started. I was logged in but never used it because I had Apollo. The only reason I even had it was because Apollo’s “Open in Apollo” function didn’t seem to work 100% of the time.
The official app would send me push notifications for trending posts on subs I wasn’t even subscribed to. I quickly got tired of it, and uninstalled it after like a week. Never looked back, and switched entirely to Apollo. Once the API shit hit the fan, I walked away and haven’t missed it. Looking back at all the background activity that the official app had, (it’s horrible for battery life because of all the massive amounts of telemetry it sends) I’m half convinced that the push notifications were simply an attempt to keep the app open in the background. Like if you force-closed it, they’d occasionally send you notifications simply to get you to open the app for a second so it can run in the background again.
Their app really is fucking bad. I don't get who thought it was good enough to stand alone
yeah its so slow and buggy. i was on boost then all this shit happebed.
boost for lemmy when.
Just another reason to use Lemmy: our's is a rainbow! 🏳️🌈
As a solution, you can always have it being read to you by the accessibility feat- ohh wait.

I'm pretty sure it's been like this for a long time, too
I remember getting a new phone and somehow i downloaded reddit instead of boost. I thought Ah come on, how bad can it be, let's try one more round. 5 minutes in I ended up like this and noped out of there. I still miss my reddit communities a bit, but as a mobile user there is no going back.
NGL, I had this happen with sync a few times in the past
That's definitely true, but Sync also fixed it a while back.
Sync is also one dev while reddit employs over 50 devs for their mobile app alone.
They're fucking it up 50X faster than a single dev could accomplish.
Oh, and they have all the access to the backend that no third party app developer has. What a fucking pack of amateurs.
r/softwaregore lmao
But also, I know Sync is gone but there are other third party apps still clinging on like Relay. So why are you still using the official app?
Whose garbage app? Never heard of this "red dit" place. What's a "dit" and why isn't it some other color?
