I've sideloaded a patched version of Apollo on my phone and it's been a nicer experience (though it has limitations obviously). I am certain it will get revoked eventually. But it's the best option for me right now. There is a way to patch Android APKs. Not sure if I should share since it technically involves a form of piracy. But if you google it, it's definitely doable.

Snagged Eastward, D:OS2, FFX/X-2, and DBZ Kakarot so far.

"Mystery"

Lots of those kinds of deaths seem to be commonplace in Russia.

Some of them are starting to go on r/Save3rdPartyApps to tell people who are upset to "get off our high horse" lol

It's just sad that people are trying to defend corporate greed man...

Sync and Boost were my favorite Android Reddit clients. I always preferred Apollo and being back on iOS, but they are great in their own right. But I paid for premium for both Sync and Boost for a reason. They were so feature complete and were the closest thing I could get to Apollo on Android.

I've been lurking on old.reddit.com and I've seen a lot of people who are upset about the protesting. They are calling it childish, they are calling protesters white knights, etc. If you go on r/JustUnsubbed you can see a bunch of people whining about it. But it really just shows people don't get it nor do they care to. They just care about being mildly inconvenienced.

It's based on a short manga series Toriyama wrote awhile ago. It's a quick fun read, I highly recommend it!

It is confirmed for a Steam release. I am hopeful the game will run well enough on Steam Deck.

Firefox on MacOS. I really believe in Mozilla as a company. uBlock Origin is one of the better ad blockers you can find. Safari is a bit easier on battery life though.

I think if they had been straight up with their intentions and gave 3rd party devs time to adjust, gave them jobs/roles to improve their application. Or literally express themselves in any other way about their plans. I really honestly think that people would have been less pissed. But they decided to be secretive and dishonest about their intentions. I feel like Spez is a sitting duck who will get plucked off the moment the company goes public regardless. The fact that Reddit as he has publicly stated is not profitable now and never has been is quite damning. Investors are not going to like that. And will not willingly invest into a company that will not make them money.

I don't see them backtracking regardless of what happens with spez but they could have been more honest from the forefront. It still would have sucked. People would have probably still moved on. But there would be less animosity towards the suits in charge right now.
