After a month of outrage, protests, and unrest from the community, Reddit has finally flipped the switch to shut down some third-party apps, including Apollo, Sync, and BaconReader.

      If you’re not using Wefwef yet, give it a try. It’s basically an Apollo clone for Lemmy. Still pretty barebones but the dev is super active!

      Dude… I was just looking at Reddit on the mobile site and I had no idea how bad and intrusive the ads had gotten. Jesus…

        The “he gets us” ad being targeted and spammed at vulnerable groups is sickening. I won’t support reddit allowing organizations to prey on people.
