    Reddit can truly get fucked. Can’t wait to delete all my Reddit accounts on July 1st. I’m holding out 1/100000th hope that they will come to their senses on June 30th.

    Reddit has done a great job un-aliving itself.

    They can serve you ads just fine on mobile web, that’s not it. It’s that the app let’s them track your behavior far better than the web browser.

    Too much salespeople see complaints like “your application is bad” and answer with “we’re going to force it on you even more then”.

        I use Friendly social Browser on Android. It’s basically a wrapper for the mobile website and allows me to sort posts the way I want them, which is important to me. I don’t want the algorithm. I’ve used it for years. It works with quite a few different social media sites and doesn’t allow all the tracking. I have the Plus version and I’m allowed to turn off ads on both the app and Facebook and block “stories” and other silliness I don’t care for. I don’t know if the free version does all of that.
