At this point, I'm not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.

Many users don't log in. After the fall of the 3rd party apps, I only use the rdx webapp if I want to view reddit. I don't log in with an account at all anymore. So all of my data looks like some anon browsing from the same VPN server as hundreds of other anons. Yes they can analyze all of that traffic and individualize it, but that takes work. I'm glad to make them expend more effort, even if they get the same data in the end. Every step that makes it less cost effective for them is better, even if not perfect.
