Relay finally shut down without subscription - not sure how much I’ll really use reddit from hereon out, most of my time is on lemmy anyway

    Occasionally I’m tempted to look at Reddit again, and then I remember that I’d have to use the web or official client now, so it would all just be ads anyway…

    Oh dang. I got the same message earlier today. Wasn’t really using the app anymore too much but it really does infuriate me that we had such a good thing going with reddit there for a while.

    Thank you for relaying this information

    Vulcan is a proud Relay user and relying on this app for Reddit for years, but The Snoo Platform alienated me away and nowadays, Vulcan is roaming around here and fediverse.

      Am I missing something or does this only have a cards type mode?!

      Edit: You have to disable “inline previews” to get a regular / compact view.
      Edit: Too bad you need an account for subbing. One of the features I’ll miss from Infinity.

        RedReader, right? You can add custom subs by going to a subreddit and select “Pin to Main Menu” from menu. You can do this without an account.

          Yes but that does not create a custom frontpage with just your subscribed subs. Infinity was able to do that even without an account.
          Not a huge fan of the colors & layout of RedReader either but it’s not like there’s a lot of options now.
