Huh, I’ve got all advertisers hidden forever on Lemmy
Why are people still accepting this?
Reddit has a lot of content and users, I had to switch to Lemmy after being IP banned from reddit (called too many nazis “nazis” I guess) but I really miss the news feed I had cultivated there.
Steal the content “for AI training”?
I use the old.reddit.com/r/subreddit+subreddit1 bookmark approach to get a reddit feed without relying on reddit account for a subscription on desktop browser.
And on Android I use Stealth from F-Droid which is an app that lets you subscribe locally, save locally, and lets you have different profiles with different subscriptions. And it is account free with no way to log in.
Moving to primarily lurking is the route I’ve taken.
RSS works too. Just add .rss to the end of the old.reddit URL for the sub, e.g. old.reddit.com/subreddit1.rss
I use redreader to lurk.
This Reddit place is never gonna take off if they keep treating users this way
The majority of their users are bots, which don’t care how they are treated.
I used to love reporting ads for suicide watch on reddit…
They took that option away quick tho. I am sure the marketing parasite got his feels hurt.
