...but I don't want to get rid of it! Been using RIF since 2011 and it'd feel so weird to take it off my home screen. I tried the Reddit app but it pollutes the front page with so much unnecessary shit that it becomes a chore to browse. Liking the look of Lemmy so far though.

I keep it around so that when I click reddit links in Google they go to RIF instead of the dog shite mobile site. Can't log in or comment though.

I hid it from the app drawer/list, so I can only get to it by searching or with a link.

I kept it for the same reason, but even that appears to not be working anymore

Well I haven't noticed lol. Feel less and less reason to go back to reddit. Lemmy is pretty great.

Stealth (com.cosmos.unreddit) has a switch for web scraping mode, however reddit being left as only a really badly ran potemkin village gives the site an uneasy feeling
