heh, I know the feeling. Aside from Minecraft, it's the only game I've cracked 1,000 hours in...

Greetings from upside-down land. Here’s a copy-paste of the sticky:

The mod team have always refrained from joining in Reddit activism but we felt strongly enough to join the API blackout to try to preserve the apps that drew us to Reddit initially. Our roles in this community will become more difficult as a result of this policy change, and accessibility for users with special requirements is severely lacking on Reddit's main application.
It is clear to us from Spez's leaked email that he remains unabashed by the pushback from the communities and is resilient in pushing forward with the policy change. With communities much larger and much more imposing than CasualUK dropping out of the blackout, it has started to feel like standing in front of a dam with a sieve.. The whole time, the thing that really suffers is this community. There is an enormous support network in this subreddit for those who need it, and we want to continue to encourage and foster that spirit. This has always been a refuge from the goings on around the rest of the platform and we do not with the userbase to suffer as a result of Reddit's determination to close the third party sites.
We apologise unreservedly to those who think we should remain offline indefinitely, and we welcome those who want just want a place to talk about their day, or to mention if someone has done a shit in your bin.

It is somewhat ironic, though GrapheneOS only supports Pixel phones. Having messed around with custom Android ROMs before, I can understand why the dev team are choosing a narrow selection of devices to maintain builds for. Just take a look at how many different Samsung phones there are out there - it would be a nightmare to try and support all of them!

Yep, Firefox for me as well on all devices.
