The official reddit app is not even supported on my device.

Honestly Reddit doesn't infuriate me anymore. I haven't been on reddit for 2 weeks now and I no longer feel the urge to check that site. I expect I'll still end up there occasionally when I search for stuff, but gone are the days when I spend an hour or two every night on reddit.

Can we please stop with all the posts about reddit? Jesus christ you guys it's a website, not your crazy ex. Lemmy is never going to surpass reddit in popularity when the only thing on the frontpage besides beans is "reddit this, reddit that".

Can we all just leave the Reddit chatter to the Reddit or Redditmigration communities at this point please? If not yet, then maybe soon? This ex-partner behavior is just going to turn off new people from joining in the long run.

What is that app possibly made of that it cant run on literally anything? It's just an app for text and images. I dont get it, is it optimized like an actual potato?

Consider it a blessing.

You're not missing much

Great news.

I only ever used Reddit in Firefox on desktop anyway - but now I use it a whole lot less (maybe just one reply per day trolling people with interesting posts they'd be better posting here).

Lemmy is a shit-show... but it's OUR shit-show and we'll adjust, and clever people will develop.

What is this redit you are talking about? I don't know what that is.

Well now how are you going to see all those ads?

They detected that you must be too poor to be worth supporting. It's simple economics. They needed to be able to balance out the incredible infrastructure costs you were bound to incur.

Welcome to Lemmy! Your daily shitpost about Reddit.

The app is named joey but the icon is of a koala??? 🤔

Lol download Connet for Lemmy.

Boost and infinity still work, but not for long

Edit: Mixed up sync and infinity lol

Probably for the best.

I may use Reddit through the browser on occasion while googling (but without logging in). My Reddit activity has dropped 99%. The 1% is lurking the World News thread to follow Ukraine war updates while logged out.

Did you think they cared about accessibility?

You're not missing out on anything...

You dodged a bullet homie.

I'm gonna miss Joey, spent a lot of time scrolling. I'm still using it for now until the API changes kick in, then I'm probably gone from Reddit for good after I sort through the saved content that I actually care about.

No xprivacy or adblockers allowed you filthy hacker now go watch 2 hours of ads on YouTube to support people with billions of times more money than you.

holy fuck, Android 8? My Android phone is only just compatible (8.0)

Reddit app is the only app on my phone that doesn't like Samsung's multitasking and the good lock taskbar for the folds. It crashes the entire systemui sometimes if I try to open it from the task bar, and it breaks multitasking until a reboot sometimes if I try to set it next to another app that's open. Even if it "works" and I resize it it picks some arbitrary post I commented on some earlier time the app was open to fling itself back to maing me lose whatever I was doing before.

How is it infuriating? We came to lemmy and kbin to get away from Reddit ?

On a more serious note, your tablet might just be too old. Reddit's official app requires Android 8.0+, while Joey only requires on Android 5.0. So that might be the reason why.

they'll call you a POS for not being part of the pc master race

You're probably better off.

LMFAO that's special

What's your device?

good reason to ween yourself off reddit and help build up lemmy by doing what you were going to do

I'm on LineageOS sans gapps, so not even Google Play available. If it's not open source, it's not there.

Is Joey still there?

Maybe you can use an earlier version?

This is like 15 steps beyond shooting yourself in the foot.

I’ll bet Reddit would allow a 3rd party client that supported ONLY old phones / OSes that they themselves have decided to drop.

What's your device?

Well, the official Lemmy App also requires Android 8+. Again, no support for my not so old phone...
