Props to the mods over there!

Not gonna link the names, but for real, these guys belong in some kind of hall of fame. Stay strong, fuck /u/spez.

edit for future people: It looks like the android subreddit made a whole server! It can be found here: https://lemdro.id/

    Makes a lot of sense since it’s a sub for power users. The proportion of 3rd party app users is probably among the highest at Reddit

    For the record, I know this because I’m going through my old comments and turning them into ads for lemmy 😅

      Just a heads up

      Go to reveddit.com and throw your username in there. Check if your comments aren’t being shadow removed.

      Not much you could do about it, tho, but I noticed that the comments I edited to make an ad for Lemmy were all removed. They show up for me, but for other users it shows as “removed”.

      Reveddit lets you know that.

        Just checked mine. Apparently, some of my edited comments were removed, while others stayed up (with identical content).

        Subreddits where my edited comments (in new) were removed unconditionally:

        • /r/linguistics
        • /r/nottheonion
        • /r/memes (only commented in that subreddit for a short time frame, so whatever auto-removal there is might only apply to edits to old comments)
        • /r/eu4 (lots of removals, but 1 edited comment survived, no idea why, it’s neither the youngest nor oldest edited comment there)

        Partial removal subreddits:

        • /r/facepalm (some edited comments survived, at least one was reversed, didn’t notice a pattern, might be based on user reports or depend on which mod sees it)
        • /r/pettyrevenge (edits of comments younger than about a month were removed, edits of older comments survived)

        Also, looks like some subreddits that were private when I ran the edit script (like /r/MadeMeSmile) have since gone public, so I’ll have to re-run Power Delete Suite.

        I’ve had the suspicion about my comments ever since I’ve posted kbin ads (only twice). Timely comments fitting the thread and zero reactions while the one I replied to gets 1000s of upvotes.

        Oh well, it’ll be over next week anyway. Prepare for the wave!

      I hope you’re not doing this manually. Power Delete Suite can also do edits.

      Doing a great service for the people. Reddit doesn’t deserve to keep content from people given how poorly they’ve treated the community as a whole

    It’s so nice to see some subreddits sticking to their guns and ideals and push through until real change happens! r/Nintendo is still down too, which was a nice surprise when I was looking around to see the state of my subs on Reddit.

      Oh wow, /r/nintendo stayed down through a Nintendo Direct that announced a new Mario game? That’s a lot more chutzpah than I’d expect from a subreddit focused on a game console.

        r/Games didn’t even have the balls to shutdown because “summer game fest is more important than a protest”

        They are more based than /r/pcgaming, /r/pcmasterrace, /r/linux, and /r/buildapc. Got my respect. To see them still holding strong is not at all what I would have expected. PC community pretty much completely dropped the ball.

    Honestly I feel that the android community here on lemmy is more active than the r/android subreddit before the lockdown

    As it should be, all the subreddits that was part of this protest should have done that and not given the end date

    Still super shitty that sync for reddit is vanishing soon. While it’s great that apparently it’s getting re-leveraged as a fediverse reader, still amazed at how poorly this API transition happened because Spez wants to be a knob

      In case you’re stuck on Reddit, the Revanced Team decompiled the APK and made a version of Sync that lets you use your own API key. I’m not sure how well that will work, but I’m definitely going to try it out after The Final Day

        Aw yus, that’s exactly what I wanted to hear. When I heard that they didn’t want to change the app to allow you to use your own API key I was scratching my head wondering why, I could exist under that daily API rate.

        I might give it a go

          I may be wrong but in one of the threads it was said that App Developers allowing users to use their own API Key was also against the agreement

      There’s a Discord active and I believe at least 1 Lemmy community so at least there’s external options

        My main point was that if there’s one subreddit that should of migrated fully to lemmy… it would be them. Practice what you preach. Granted they are probably one of the larger communities here on lemmy.
