Apparently there's a PR adding the new API that the Artemis dev is already running on a test server, but it's not official to the codebase that major Kbins are running yet.
So seems like we're very close and that should really change things in terms of Kbin apps. Also Artemis is about to launch their public beta as well and from what I understand it's looking pretty nice. Will be great to have an app that supports both Lemmy and Kbin.
Boost was my favorite app and I paid for premium. But ever since joining Lemmy I’ve been trying to replace all my apps with ones that are FOSS. I’ll have to pass on this one unless things change
Fantastic! Same here, I was using the official reddit app, started hesring about 3rd parties. Itried a whole bunch, Joey for reddit, Relay, and Boost to name a few. Boost was the only one that just had the simple experience except unlike the official app, had a working video player, loaded posts correctly, and the amount of ads was astonishing low in comparison. My jaw just dropped realising what I was missing out on, everything just worked.
It was Rubius. Originally the colour pallete was changed to black, white and grey but Reddit removed everything except white when people started writing fuck spez.
It was actually the r/placeDE community. Two of our designers quickly cobbled it together in Photoshop and then shared the final design with a bunch of communities and streamers, including Papaplatte, Rubius, placeFR, placeNL and others.
They permanently banned my 9yo account with 2 million karma for using the “boxes of Liberty” metaphor in a highly up voted comment about Republicans taking away access to voting. They said it was a threat of violence. 🙄 Meanwhile fascists make literal death threats in conservative subs with no consequences.
The site has systematically been banning high volume contributors who aren’t right wing enough for at least the last 3 months. They, like Twitter, are trying to suppress the voices of people who are against fascism. It is deliberate and planned.
Not to be conspiratorial, but this is an aspect I've pondered that hasn't gotten much discussion: given spez's fanboy emulation of Musk, we could see Reddit become a lot more right-wing as those voices are the ones allowed to continue, like-minded mods are put in place, etc...which means those folks gain yet another messaging platform. It's not great.
The principals of capitalism align with their interests and perhaps their swing that direction could be seem as a defense mechanism against their better nature and any sort of guilt associated with their, what i consider, morally corupt actions.
I got the exact same treatment for "report abuse" for reporting a comment copying bot. Like, ok. If you want Reddit to be nothing but spam bots parroting each other, have at it
