I am posting the updates here because most of the users of RDX came from this community only.

Multiple updates have been made to https://rdx.overdevs.com since I last posted here including:

  1. Importing subscriptions from Reddit
  2. Saving posts for later
  3. Share button
  4. hls/dash videos
  5. better search

My reddit web viewer still works! Story: When reddit killed 3rd party apps, I uploaded a web viewer I have been using for myself to Github pages for everyone to use…

If you want to lurk on Reddit, you can use this web reader I built for myself when I got inspired by the Apollo app years ago

    If Reddit had a good UI I would return in a heartbeat. I’m sick of small, practically inactive communities for hobbies and these shallow, poorly developed calls for the end of capitalism being shoved down my throat.

      Well it’s a choice between freedom or corporate control. Freedom is never flashy at first, it only thrives when people embrace it.

      Well cheers to reddit for having a bad UI then, we love having you here.

      I really hope Lemmy grows out to also fill in the small inactive communities, a social media without corporate incentives to milk out the users has so much potential.

      Reddit has way more shallow poorly developed calls for the end of Capitalism.

        Reddit also has enough large communities that I don’t need to participate in the communities I don’t like. With lemmy, it’s either small communities or the constant braindead takes.

      Is this a popular opinion? I’m sort of shocked at the amount of upvotes this got tbh. Lemmy fulfills my reddit cravings, and honestly feels like a more mature community to me
