I am unironically starting to like twitter more than reddit
Abd I fucking hate twitter
So you're starting to hate reddit more than X. Understandable. I think the social media companies are lost, they had their time.
I used my own content controls to block reddit for a year. Well, a bit longer so far.
The best reddit control to block ads is too not use Reddit lol. The second best is ublock origin. I've been using method two since like 2013 and have zero issues or regrets.
I’ve blocked all ads on reddit on my own terms, and have actually gone ahead and deleted my 15 year old account too 👍 They can fuck off
Still selling as much of your data as they can though, regardless of how many He Get Us ads you see
Lemmy let's me not think about advertisers.
Finally give the second most hated advertisers a chance for once!
The nerds lost the internet. It's a fucking Kmart now.
Not so new browser controls let you block all advertisers forever
He gets us
RedReader app works, theres no ads. Im just a passive user of Reddit nowdays, mainly seeing whats up in local city subs as far as news and events. Theres not very much of that on Lemmy yet. If I were to comment in the Lemmy community thats local to my hometown it would probably be like "Hey, are you so an so from the east end?" 😄
