I was one of the people who deleted their reddit account when 3rd party apps were being pressured out.

I am just wondering how the official app is now. I visit a page that has no lemmy alternative every now and then.

I have no plans to post, upvote or downvote. I just want an easy way to see a couple of pages sometimes. Currently doing this in a mobile browser, requiring I not wipe history. Is there a better way to do this?

That’s horrible! In the past, I got severely downvoted for asking about headsets on a group about lossless audio or something. Getting banned for what you described is unreasonable.

    I was a bit annoyed for a while. I made it worse for myself by trying to actually evade my ban using a VPN etc, but I hadn't appreciated how sophisticated they are these days and once you're banned you're banned for life.

    It's odd to me, as when I first started using it throwaway accounts were common and it was a fun place to an anonymously comment on stuff. I might try and rejoin when I next upgrade my phone, but I understand they track your Google account and various other identifiers so maybe it's to call it a day.
