I used that one. Uninstalled it a couple days ago after being banned from a subreddit for calling someone a retard when they were acting retarded. That was the last straw for me. Fuck reddit. I will never, ever go back to that piece of shit website. And fuck redditors too, smug, condescending, fucking idiots.

for calling someone a retard when they were acting retarded

In this genteel day and age of evolved linguistic, we prefer to stick with euphemisms, like minimal or marginal genius and imbecilically enhanced.

I just don’t get what’s going on in their heads. They know that most users use third party apps. They know the people on desktop use RES, and mods use third party tools. They know their stuff doesn’t really work. So they decide to kill off third party apps and tools. And now they’re shocked everyone is leaving.

The way to make money is to build a shitty site that doesn’t work then ban the tools people use to make your site viewable? They’ll just drive away users. And with no users they don’t make money.
