Yup even 3rd party clients are having issues
Just log in on another server… Duh!
…butt I’m on the toilet! I need my precious!
Use Lemmy
What’s Lemmy?
Hell yeah
I was wondering why it kept giving me a “you broke reddit” error. Not that Im visiting reddit for funsies, but its where just about every troubleshooting search result takes me, which is frustrating.
It was you!!!
Apollo sideloaded stopped working so I’m back to Lemmy. Seems like an API issue.
Nice… We welcome all users to the fediverse. Try mbin!
Here is the GitHub page: https://github.com/MbinOrg/mbin
Tried it, was confused.
My bad. That is the software side… If you want to register and join a server try: https://joinmbin.org/servers
No I figured that part out but I think you have to be used to the tumblr/twitter format for it to feel intuitive. The avalanche of stuff being thrown at me was overwhelming. I’m guessing it takes a lot of curating to become good and I just don’t want to do that, my block list on Lemmy is already a few novellas long and I don’t want to start over.
Use Mastodon if you want to have a “twitter” like feed. Mbin is focused on replacing Reddit. That being said… Mbin also have microblogging support! Example: https://kbin.melroy.org/microblog
Basically Mbin is Lemmy + Mastodon combined!
I never used twitter or tumblr and I have no idea what a microblog is lol. I feel like Lemmy already is a good reddit replacement, especially with the apps. Might give mbin a go on desktop, it was too cluttered on mobile. Thank you for your patience and explaining it for me tho, appreciate ya!
I’m all for substantial and lulzy schadenfreude, but this is service notification made into a daily mail article, that’s when one starts seeming obsessed with a site one doesn’t use anymore
To be fair, the day they actually kill old.reddit we can expect an influx of new users here, so it’s still good to keep an eye on it
Reddit.com still works. Old.reddit.com does not.
Wonder if they’ve decided to finally do away with old reddit?
They are going to use the scrapping of old as the reason why. My apps that scrape it are down.
My how I Wish lemmy was better.
Piefed, Sublinks, and Mbin are all coming along.
Back up now for me, all frontends.
Same issue here.
I think it’s just a temporary issue, but I really will stop using Reddit if old.reddit.com goes down. There are niches that just aren’t on here… but that UI.
The UI is unacceptable and an exercise in everything wrong with modern UI.
I like how much it obsesses over your post’s engagement metrics. I feel like that creates toxic incentive’s, but… shrug. What do I know?
Both don’t work for me.
I personally can’t use Reddit, Old Reddit, or RedReader currently.
I normally use Old Reddit and RedReader
new.reddit.com still works it seems. I think they’re going to take Old.Reddit.com offline, the bastards. If they do that, I may end up back here at Lemmy fulltime. I know none of you want that!
i occasionally use reddit and they’ve killed new.reddit lol, the new new layout is permanent
That’s the final nail for a lot of people
I wish I still believed that
Not gonna happen. They’ll just re-lube the old condom while Reddit rapes them again.
I’m…Imma be over here…was n…nice meeting you…
Christ lemmings are fucking fragile
Wow uh maybe pump the brakes on the hyperbole there boyo
Jesus dude
Again, if reddit keeps malfunctioning, eventually it will lose all its functionality and one day shut down for good.
Think of all the poor bots that can’t repost!
In some faraway data center fan noise has reduced somewhat for the duration.
HAHA
When my Lemmy instance is down (which is very rare, much more stable than Reddit), I just browse via a different instance!
Another strength of decentralized social media
It’s beautiful. I’ve been here when world was down and the rest of Lemmy runs business as usual.
I wonder if they try to plan server updates around each other for this reason
Same here, lol
The bots that are reddit’s biggest users can detect downtime in milliseconds.
Oh no. The poor repost bots 😔
There are a thousand dozen of us!
Ha ha
