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/
One of the mods of /r/Android here (/u/cooldude5500), tbh I’ve barely used reddit after the spezification. 'tis a nice change…
spezification
What a fantastic word
/r/android is resisting spezification
For the record, I know this because I’m going through my old comments and turning them into ads for lemmy 😅
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
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.
huh? what is a reddit? who is a “Spez”?
r/apple is not which I find very disappointing
Seems on brand of them
Typical average consumer does not care as long as they get to keep using the product. That’s likely the majority of Apple users, it’ll take a replacement (like this one) getting popular enough for them to notice and try it, otherwise on Reddit they’ll stay till death.
With apple aficionados, it would also take costing a lot of money to make them interested.
Nah, just a different colored bubble for their messages.
Bet them mods used Rif :P
As one of the current mods of /r/Android… Can confirm I do :P
