Does anybody else continue to frequent Reddit, albeit without an account? (lemm.ee)

There are simply some communities I can't find on Lemmy. For example, I use subreddits based on admissions to specific colleges that would never be able to function on Lemmy due to its size. I'd much prefer to abandon Reddit altogether but the information I need is usually only there.

yes, without an account just for local/niche subs that don't exist anywhere else

and that only because I have rif working via revanced.

if I am ever forced to see their shitty ads I'll stop doing even that

Wait, how does that work? Does it use a web scraping API?

[–] shawnshitshow@sopuli.xyz 5 points 10 months ago (1 children)

not sure how it works really, I had to create an app API key and input that into revanced and it just worked. I just followed the steps it was pretty easy.

can't log in, but participating there is pointless anyway

I'm not going to do this since I find it better to just avoid the site altogether, but I still have RIF Golden Platinum installed on my phone for sentimental reasons
