Starting in early March, the platform will place every account into a default “teen-appropriate” experience unless it has proof that users are adults.

And fuck I ain’t here cause I know something wrong. The fuck you get that idea from. I’m here because reddit doesn’t have a good app that’s literally it. I would happily go back to reddit if i could have my old app back.

Lemmy won cause the apps were more convenient.
And they used to, didn’t they? Can you remember what happened to those apps, and why? That’s right, they stopped working, because Reddit closed off their API, which can’t happen here.
So I guess you are here because you know that something is wrong with reddit, after all. You said so yourself.
