It would be more hurtful to not use reddit at all. Lower user count will mean less advertisers willing to pay for their ads on reddit.
Piracy
Welcome to /c/piracy
No netflix or streaming services landlubbers allowed, this is pirates territory.
Seconded - I am going to be logging off entirely, hoping to switch to here for main use
Yes, this. They are intensly watching the daily user count and other metrics.
reddit revanced app? Is this a new 3PA that doesn't use the api?
Via. Revanced manager you can patch existing Reddit app.
Wait, really? You mean I can use it to keep RiF working? This it? https://revanced.io/manager/
That is it, but unfortunately it only works with the official app. If I recall, it strips out a couple of the more annoying features and blocks ads.
Too bad, but good to know. I'm grasping for any copium I can get that RiF will be able to continue on lol
Check here for some options depending on your device. https://champagne.pages.dev/piracy-guides/reddit-no-ads/
normally, their app is plagued with ads and custom icons are locked. I've used the official app patched with revanced and that makes it usable, but still sucks, especially with videos. I'm trying to view and post more content here instead.
Probably won't hurt them any more than using a 3rd party app did. Which is to say, not much.
Excuse me?
