rare blur setup that both looks good and practical without being super tacky. What is the blur algo?

You can open as a desktop page and it works… Or you know… Old.reddit

theshatterstone54 , to unixporn in [hyprland] with the power of light™!

I don’t like light themes because they can be too bright, even on lower brightness but this… I kinda like it. In fact, it reminds me of this Brodie Robertson video on Light Themes: www.youtube.com/watch?v=95dYgp3f-7w (I’m counting on the Piped bot to offer a more private way of playing the video)

TLDW: Modern Light themes are bad because they’re blinding and too bright. A good light theme will not be just white but something that isn’t as bright while still looking good and not blinding you.

They have done this for a long time now.

pineapplelover ,

I like this more

jfr ,

I would have to agree. Both are very pleasing though.

Pretty interesting theming, I must say

Dear Spez: I AM NEVER EVER GOING TO DOWNLOAD YOUR FUCKING APP

Dear Steve.

He ain’t ever going to read that. Can we stop talking about our ex yet?

Easy fix is to update the url to use “old.reddit.com” rather than the base “www.reddit.com”.

That sends you to a version of the site without a bunch of the crap.

Persen ,

This doesn’t work anymore. I just refresh it and stop somewhere in the middle and it sometimes works.

InvaderDJ ,

Old Reddit works for me. Does it just not work in general for you, or does it not work when not logged into an account?

Persen ,

Well, I think the link structure changed. If I add old to the url, the page doesn’t even work, but the homepage does.

InvaderDJ ,

Interesting. I’ll have to test it when I get home. I’m always signed in and I use RES so could be some other factors causing it to not be a problem for me.

InvaderDJ ,

Did you get a browser error when trying this? It might be because you left the www in the URL. I had to remove that and replace it with old, and it works. The rest of the link structure is the same on both old and new reddit. I even tried it from a VPN just to be sure it wasn’t seeing my logged in cookies, and in a private browsing window where RES isn’t allowed to run. Worked fine.

Persen ,

Oh ok

Shadowq8 ,

any idea how reddit keeps banning my alt accounts ? I am suspecting chrome broswser is complicit.

JdW ,

Many ways to detect this, but let’s start with the basics: Are you using the same Ip address?

Shadowq8 ,

Well yes.

biscuit ,

Take a break from Reddit, uninstall all apps, clear cookies off all your browsers for reddit.com, wait a few weeks for your IP address to change, then make a new account.

repungnant_canary , to mildlyinfuriating in What is Reddit doing

I know it has nothing to do with protecting the users, but how exactly is the app supposed to make viewing unreviewed content safer?

dependencyinjection ,

They make more money that way, ergo safer for investors.

jose1324 , to mildlyinfuriating in What is Reddit doing

Theyve been doing this for years

istanbullu , to mildlyinfuriating in What is Reddit doing

They are doing everything they can so you download their app.

ILikeBoobies , (edited )

Their support site says my browser is unsupported

I already have a web app (my browser) so I’ll never download individual apps for sites (maybe tapatalk app since it covers many)

If the website doesn’t work then I just browse something else

The only decent way to browse Reddit nowadays is a private frontend called Redlib. You can use the LibRedirect browser extension or the UntrackMe Android app to automatically redirect all Reddit links to Redlib. It’s better for privacy, since you don’t need to access Reddit directly and thus your information isn’t exposed, it works without JavaScript, it doesn’t have ads or trackers and works behind a VPN or Tor. It also lets you view NSFW content without any limitations.

Pixlbabble , to mildlyinfuriating in What is Reddit doing

I haven’t been back since the exodus

@Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Me neither, at least I haven’t logged into my account to browse reddit. Occasionally I click on a Reddit because it’s the result of my web search. But I always use a private frontend called Redlib for that, LibRedirect automatically redirects all Reddit links to Redlib, it’s really useful. UntrackMe does the same on Android, Privacy Redirect on iOS.

Lemmy_2019 ,

The Digg exodus…?

Pixlbabble ,

No no that was the OG I was talking about when Reddit did the big change to the api. It’s what made lemmy grow so much.

Amanduh , to mildlyinfuriating in What is Reddit doing

I didn’t read all the comments here so someone else may have suggested this but for my android when I’m met with this I can open the browser options and choose desktop site to bypass it. Still annoying but every once in a while I need info goddamnit
