I've been looking for a reddit alternative for years now. This just accelerated my forced migration.

Infinity is (was?) so much better than the reddit official Android client. But if this keeps going all the 3rd-party clients will go defunct in one month's time. Reddit be killin' itself

I thinks that's really sad to see reddit go down hill like this

I signed out of Reddit on the 12th and that was it for me. Unless people actually leave a boycott was/is an empty stunt and Spez knows a lot of people will stay regardless.

I used 3rd party apps exclusively for an ad free nicely curated experience. Without that, it's a turkey of a site and gets worse each year.

I have to admit, I don't really think I would use Reddit if old.reddit.com went away, the "new reddit website" is slow, and ugly, and fits very little content on the page. It seems it's largely optimized for posts which contain shallow content like "cat pictures" memes and other rubbish not meaningful discussions. I appreciate RedReddit, due to the fact I can fit many posts on my screen. Reddit also requires quite a bit of moderation as there is a lot very low quality content posted there. It's quite a tiring process.
