I can see it.

What were you using before?

[–] dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Firefox

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Oh. I honestly don't like browser Lemmy. I used Jerboa in the early days but it was a bit buggy and I was coming from Boost for Reddit so as soon as Boost for Lemmy launched I switched over. Did you use a third party app on Reddit?

[–] dumblederp@aussie.zone 3 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

I used Reddit is Fun. Boost for lemmy had ads, so that's not for me. e: I'd go back to firefox before putting up with ads.

[–] Baku@aussie.zone 3 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Fair. I used BfR for about 3 years before I decided to upgrade. I didn't really mind the ads, I just wanted to support the dev. But of a state secret, but the Reddit app still works if you're a mod of a sub, so I bought ad free the day after installing BfL for that (and reworking the app for Lemmy) alone.

Handy to know about BfR. I have now created my own Reddit sub and the app is working again.
