I hate the official app with the fire of 1,000 suns. So if my only options are using the official app or leaving the site completely I’m leaving completely✌️

I'm only a 6 year clubber on Reddit, but using RIF for most of it, couldn't stand how the app was going. Nowadays it's the content as well. Going to be exploring around here now

Reddit's official app, and in fact Reddit's official website is a hugely compromised experience, and I suspect the only reason they haven't gone further is that they don't want to push people to the alternatives. However this latest move to restrict the available alternatives seems like the beginning of the end to me and their app and site are only going to get worse.

That's why I'm here at least!

I'd rather crawl the 20 extra miles to a new community (and did) than use that app again. It's that bad. The reviews on Google Play are very telling. It's just a buggy mess.

old.reddit.com on a mobile browser is still 100 times better than the "official" reddit app.

Despite it not being available through i.reddit.com, compact mode is still reachable at reddit.com/.i, and I find it even better than old reddit for mobile.

I had no idea. I had never even seen this until today

Always learning ;)
Hopefully reddit won't take it down

tried it out, doesn't seem to actually be usable for anything other than reading the home page not logged in and links thereof. For example I can't https://reddit.com/.i/r/Cricket or similar

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

The ideal is to append that /.i at the end of the URL. Like so: https://www.reddit.com/r/Cricket/.i

Edit: which also works for login: https://www.reddit.com/login/.i

hehe x)
Reddit still has a massive legacy worth exploring sometimes, so having a nice way to do it is definitely good. Libreddit and teddit exist as well.
