There used to be a very janky waterslides on a hilltop that closed down. The place was notorious for giving kids scrapes and bruises and other injuries for years, my parents were surprised it hadn’t closed earlier.

Hold on, I am not here to spread misinformation! Like I said before, I genuinely had no idea about the trend of Tiananmen square posts since I don’t browse r/all. As for why I haven’t retitled it yet…didn’t know you could!

Also the 3 week old twitter post, I got from a discord friend.

This is why I don’t use searxng as my daily driver! I’m too lazy to self host and they’re always down.

Had no idea! Thanks for informing me. I will keep this post up because I think it is an interesting discussion to have

Doing that! But still would like an alternative for reddit.

I’m not a furry, I’m chill with furries, but I do wish there was more variety in the art style. A lot of it is human anime-esque with furry features or too mascot-y. I think I would be a furry if more of them were drawn like disney, looney toon, and other western cartoons. But not much is.

So even though I like cartoon animals, I can only consider myself maybe 5% furry at best.

Safari allows you to install adblockers, there’s multiple options too. Most vpns these days also come with adblock even if your browser doesn’t allow it.

I used Narwhal most of the years I used reddit, it also had ads like the official app, but the difference is it ran so much smoother for many years! Main reason why I switched off it was slow development was causing it to become a bit buggy, not the ads.

It sadly doesn’t have a linux version cause it’s not foss. But according to the about firealpaca window, it primarily is coded in QT.

I was a bit sad about the API changes, but I kept official app around for uploading video/image posts since those hosted on reddit started to get more views than imgur/other host website ones. So I wouldn’t have minded switching apps full time. What got me angry was Spez’s mistreatment of the Apollo dev. I am absolutely not a fan of the Apollo app, but no one should be treated that way. Plus the realization that many websites that use reddit API that I use frequently will go away as well (such as saving videos, pushshift reddit search, and spotlistr). That’s what got me initially away from reddit.
