I always feel pain when using the reddit app
Fuck that app, I’m still pissed they killed Apollo. On the rare occasions I go there now, I use SinkIt to make the mobile web experience less bad.
What the fuck! I fucking hate this. Who the fuck is thinking this is a fucking good idea bruh.(I still visit reddit but don't make post or comment)
I dont understand why third party apps don’t work with reddit. If the official app can work fine, surely an app that mimics the official one with the API requests should work, no?
If you can develop a system that can defeat oauth security you can do way more than falsify Reddit API traffic. You could steal all kinds of information.
You don't need to authenticate yourself to access most of reddit's content. It is quite plausible to attempt to collect their content by anonymizing and disguising the collecting sessions good enough. The only thing it really does is make it harder to detect instances of reddit's hidden moderation, which may be the goal here if their intent is shape and promote discussions towards certain outcomes.
The irony of not linking to old Reddit…
Fixed, I didn't notice, just copied the link from redreader
It’s all good, I was just making a joke.
But thanks for fixing!! :)
Another appreciation post from me. The less I use Reddit and YouTube the better my life is. I really don’t see a drawback here.
Reddit died 10 years ago; it's just taken this long for it's death throws to piddle out...
Caught a typo/autocorrect error
It's throe, not throw. I've yet to run across a keyboard with throe in its dictionary. It's weird what niche words get put in and which ones don't.
My keyboard certainly doesn't have throe in its dictionary. But it also doesn't have throw. Or through. Or really any words because it doesn't have a dictionary.
My keyboard has a dictionary. And DJ! Woo! Cmon! Hibaa! Yeaaa!
Duck your keyboard's dictionary! ^_^
They already fucked the layout of it up a while back so it is functionally the same as new reddit anyway.
BORU my only guilty pleasure. Nothing of value was lost
probably because it seems super easy to scrape
