Because I only use web, on mobile and desktop. I can’t live without adblock.
I use a third party app on my phone, and old.reddit on the desktop. Never could get used to ‘new’ and don’t like how the screen real estate is on it. Ad block for the home network AND Ublock Origin on mobile and desktop are a must have for me.

How do you use adblock for the home network?
Check out pihole or AdGuard Home. They serve as DNS server for your home network and can filter unwanted connections.
Also, https://my.nextdns.io
Also dnsforge.de (though it leaves no room for customization)
DNS server ad blocking. I use technitium DNS server for devices on my network. Set up a virtual machine with that or another ad block DNS server like pihole on it, and then point your clients to it. This way it looks up where to find ‘
adserver.com’ (for example) and gets a response of ‘NOWHERE’. Can’t go to the ad store to show you ads.

App 98% of the time. If I can’t use Apollo, I won’t use reddit anymore. The website sucks and the official app is garbage now.
I use the #Infinity app on #Android, it’s on #Fdroid so it’s open source.
I prefer to do everything in the desktop, so I usually used old reddit with Reddit Enhancement Suite. When I’m out and about, I might scroll reddit a bit on the Boost app for Android. I don’t want to use their official app or new reddit at all.
I mostly use Infinity for Reddit (where Jerboa for Lemmy clearly draws a lot of inspiration from)
Sometimes I also use reddit on my PC but the site is horrible there and the old site, while not as buggy, doesn’t look great.
Same, Infinity is what I stick to, and when it’s gone, i’m gone from Reddit
I’m part of the Infinity crew too. I’ve tried so many clients and Infinity just ticks all the boxes for me
I’ve never used something different than Reddit is Fun (RIF for Fun now, I guess?) on Android for private use and the ‘normal’ web version if I Google something for work and end up on Reddit.
Same, I use RIF and old reddit com
Reddit is Fun on Android mobile, old.reddit on desktop with RES. The design of new Reddit is atrocious, they only show 3 comments so you have to click more and the ads are obnoxious. The official app is pushed on you as much as possible and is used as the default for opening browser links, even if you tell it otherwise in the device settings. I uninstalled it because it didn’t like coexisting with RiF.
I use Apollo 99% of the time… ( RIP alien blue ) and old.reddit 1% of the time. I REFUSE to use the official reddit app as it is literal hot garbage and i’d rather have 1,000 root canals than to use it even for a second.
Not thrilled about starting over and finding a new alternative but I’ve done it in the past (RIP Digg) so bring it. I hope reddit burns to the ground for this.
Old.reddit with RES and Apollo on mobile- I hate what they’re doing
Mostly Infinity on mobile
I mostly use a few different clients on iOS. Not the official one which, like New Reddit, is utterly awful.
Once Lemmy gets a good stable iOS client I will mostly be here, I guess.
I’ve just installed Mlem via TestFlight. Worth a look for an iOS Lemmy client.
How did you add an account?
I do both, and when mobile I use Boost on Android. I assume they will also be affected by this so my Reddit time will be reduced quite a bit.
Finally, I had to scroll too far to find another Boost enjoyer
Redreader is my go-to on mobile
Has been for so long too. I tried the reddit webpage on my mobile with Firefox. Even the website is slow and clunky. Old.reddit is hard to read on my phone too, and it might even go away along with the API access. If I have to I’ll give ReVanced a go with the official app, just to kill the ads.
RIF on Android only. Once that stops working on July 1, I’m done with reddit.
Hey same! I got the notification in the app today and decided to make the leap to lemmy. Really hoping this takes off and come July 1st I’ll be accustomed to using this platform instead.
I think I’m going to like it here, and the low volume of posts at the moment actually just encourages me to make posts of my own. It feels much more like I’m contributing to a community. I’m very glad these donation-based alternatives are becoming popular. There’s no reason we have to monetize socializing.
Same! I’ve posted more on this platform than I ever did on Reddit.
