The Boost for Reddit app still worked for a while after the big shutdown with workarounds, like creating a mod account or using revanced.

Not anymore, as of today, the Boost for Reddit app is completely 100% dead now.

Goodbye reddit forever, hello lemmy

    You get used to it. Sorting by New and challenging yourself to kick off conversations helps.

      I’d also point out that less content has become a good thing for me.

      Less endless doom scrolling, more contributing to discussions and touching grass.

        The thing is I use reddit mostly for fun stuff. I took out a lot of the political stuff that was getting me down. There’s not nearly as many niche cute cat subs or active hobbyist game subs on lemmy.

      I’ve been on lemmy like 2 years. I like it but I wouldn’t say I’ve gotten used to it.
