I installed the official Reddit app and went on it to see what the old place was looking like now. My inbox was filled with spam. The "home feed" shows subs I never subscribed to. There are so many ads. Between the ads and the the extra subs in the feed, it's hard to just scroll. I also noted a lot of spam in some of the subs. Maybe they are subs with no mods? I'm not sure what's up with that.

    Since the whole fiasco started reddit took a turn, I was a scab for longer than I should have. I check in periodically specifically to keep track of Ukraine stuff, it’s still a hive of activity compared to Lemmy but I don’t care for it. If I was savvy I would have a script running to scraping content from Reddit and mirror it here on Lemmy to keep in tune with certain feeds.
