Happy ruleversary
10 years on reddit but when they fucked over the Apollo dev I had no problem giving him a couple bucks for the app and moving to Lemmy, haven’t looked back.
Reddit really turned into yet another brainrot doom scroll website.
I think back to what it used to be, how I used to engage with the communities and it's depressing to see how that was lost. I miss the old API especially. I used to have personal project around it that helped me use it. It was fun to develop and maintain, and it really helped me out browsing reddit.
when they changed the api ruled I tried still to use it, but their interface to create an account to use the free api (I was querying so little it would have applied to use the free api), never worked. I tried for months until finally giving up.
The first Place was a lot of fun. I miss that kind of stuff. Or the "wild sketch appeared" guy, or that guy who was a corvid specialist and popped up with bird facts every once in a while, until some drama happened and he left the site... It was an interesting site for a while there.
I genuinely can’t believe it’s been so long
Wait, it's been two years already?
that was a fast 2yrs
i left july 3rd
I got sitebanned a couple weeks before RIF officially died so not quite the same anniversary, close enough though :)
I’ve only been here since the start of the year but I’m happy to be here.
It's been pretty good too. Thanks everyone for making this collection of sites fun and interesting! Fedi is awesome 😎
I joined about half a year after the 3rd party apps died. Reddit's decision back then still feels like it was more recent than just 2 years ago, though...
Can time stop speedrunning itself, please?
Synch for Lemme and haven't gone back.
I never used RIF but I came over at the same time due to the fuckery over mods. I quit all my mod positions that day too, no more working for Reddit for free.
2 years and 2 weeks. I must have left a tad early.
This me. Do we get snacks?
The office ordered everyone beans. You can have some during your break.
Sometimes I forget how long it's been!
