root_beer, in Did Karma really matter that much in Reddit?
@root_beer@kbin.social avatar

It was important enough for karma-farming bots to exist for some reason, I dunno. I'm glad it's not really a thing here, it was especially frustrating to see the occasional innocuous comment be downvoted for some inexplicable reason.

It's to get around thresholds.

The bot accounts were mostly about to be sold on third party websites or used for scams.

Ah, yeah, forgot about that. So yeah, karma matters to some people very much.

It should be used only to determine in which order posts and comments are displayed.

Levetamae, in Welcome Newbies!

This was very helpful. Thanks.

Exilfranke, in Did Karma really matter that much in Reddit?

I think everybody checked the own posts for the karma they got for it. So I think it plays a huge role. Of course some people go too far and make it the only thing that matters about it. I won't miss those people.

It stopped about 2200 US eastern time for me...at least that's when I noticed it. I uninstalled and then deleted my Reddit account. I'm all in on the fediverse!

Thankfully kbin has a web app that I put right in the same place. It’s like nothing really changed in my life

abff08f4813c,

Ditto. This is exactly what I did.

Bazzatron, in Farewell Baconreader. It's been a wonderful 11 years.

Just uninstalled and left a 5 star review on play store. Funnily, it's currently the #1 paid app in social rankings, at least from the UK.

If you're lurking here BR Dev - still love you 💔

Too late, ya pieces of shit; I’m deleting all my data and leaving this place.

Well that 's it for me. I blocked Reddit on my PC with UBlock Origin, and the only time I would look at Reddit would be through RIF. I can only hope for an app so good for kbin and the Fediverse.

Dick_Justice, in Ordinary redditors are feeling the pain as well.

Spez is a fuckwad who has convinced himself that his table is what makes the food taste good, and these shortsighted users that stuck around are pissed that the potluck is over.

abff08f4813c,

A perfect metaphor!

Aww man I have had Relay Pro for so long but have only been on Reddit recently to look at my sub list to work out what I’m missing over here (and find/create equivalent communities)

sharkato, in It's over - Sync for Reddit is offline
@sharkato@kbin.social avatar

Cheers to the best reddit app. I'll be eager to try out the lemmy client when it arrives!

NextGenHen, in RIP RIF

RIF was a great app. Here's to hoping we bring all the best parts of Reddit across and continue the fun!

neur0mancer, in Christian Selig’s Goodbye to Apollo
@neur0mancer@kbin.social avatar

I was browsing on Apollo around 5 pm local when it crashed, never to reopen. Knew it was coming, but it was a bit heartbreaking seeing it actually happening.

Godspeed, Apollo... gone but never forgotten.

Thank you Christian for bringing so much joy to my Reddit experience all of these years. Best wishes on whatever roads life will take you next.
