The Boost for Reddit app still worked for a while after the big shutdown with workarounds, like creating a mod account or using revanced.

Not anymore, as of today, the Boost for Reddit app is completely 100% dead now.

Goodbye reddit forever, hello lemmy

    Same. I’m looking around at the KBin instance and it’s in bad shape, some of the communities are in. The admin is MIA due to IRL issues with health so he can’t be around to help. Moderators are abandoning already weakened communities that are now stuffed with bots and spam content.

    The only real lively community is over in Lemmy’s instances. But, the Fediverse still yet has a long ways to go, it needs more maturity as an alternative and needs more time to gather membership that’ll hopefully be comparable to reddit’s but not in quantity but quality.

      The fediverse looks a lot different from a lemmy server than it does from Kbin, fyi. There’s a lot of stuff that doesn’t get federated properly or in a reasonable time period, leading to fewer visible posts and discussions that look a lot emptier than they actually are.
