Be honest, do you still use reddit? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I used to check the front page at least once every day, and occassionally check specific subreddits. Now I don't look at reddit unless theres some drama, like mods getting purged, then I'd go there and enjoy the drama. Occasionally there will be questions that only reddit has the answer to so I have to reluctantly use it. I got my uBlock Origin ready to kill all the ads. That shitty website will not get a cent out of me.

What about you? Do you still use reddit?

Nope. If I can't use Sync I won't use Reddit.

You can still patch it with revanced manager.

But I only use sync to get better ui when researching things. Not to browse reddit.

Might wanna check who you are replying to!

The man, the Legend.

@ljdawson@lemmy.world is the creator of Sync, I somehow doubt he would use revanced to patch his own app haha

[–] Racle@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

Lol, didn't even notice to who I was replying. But my comment is still valid for others :P

It's still the best way to use reddit. But I won't be contributing to reddit in anyway.

Now I just wait for sync for lemmy 😁

[–] Razp@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

I can't use Lemmy without Sync. It's unusable. I am now lurking Reddit on Relay, until Sync for Lemmy is ready

[–] LoganNineFingers@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

That's what it was for me. I used sync pretty much from the moment it came out. Thanks for all your work on it.

The reason I came to Lemmy is because you said you were moving the app here. I had initially planned on giving up this type of social media (the last one I use).

Long story short, thanks man!
