I was one of the people who deleted their reddit account when 3rd party apps were being pressured out.

I am just wondering how the official app is now. I visit a page that has no lemmy alternative every now and then.

I have no plans to post, upvote or downvote. I just want an easy way to see a couple of pages sometimes. Currently doing this in a mobile browser, requiring I not wipe history. Is there a better way to do this?

    The official app is still shit, the mods are mostly absolute zealots, and the Admin uses so many AI tracking tools that if you get banned from a sub for some minor issue, you can soon find yourself get banned from the site forever. Which is why i’m here :-)

    I was on it for about 13 years, got banned from AskUK for using ChatGPT as a spell checker, then got permanently banned from reddit for using a throwaway account, which was flagged as ban evasion.

      That’s horrible! In the past, I got severely downvoted for asking about headsets on a group about lossless audio or something. Getting banned for what you described is unreasonable.
