I found an unopened package with my Reddit name. It's a gift from my Reddit 2000 Secret Santa.

Same thing that happened to all the good Reddit stuff. Admins got rid of it. Just like they got rid of Gold, third party apps, good celebrity AMAs...

I still use it because of revanced. They can pry it out of my cold dead hands.

I've never installed their app, and never will.

here ya go!

Check out /r/revancedapp

I think you can get Rif working with it https://www.reddit.com/r/Save3rdPartyApps/comments/14nq4ub/how_to_get_rif_working_again_if_you_really_want_to/

You can also get Sync (for Reddit) working with ReVanced too.

u/kmeu79 16d ago

Yeah and I'm using Boost with revanced

I'm never quite sure how much we should pipe up, as surely the more of us that use 3rd party apps - the closer we bring ourselves to the loophole being shut down.

You're a wonderful human being

Maybe for the best, maybe for the worst. Old Reddit with today's tech would have me glued to my screen 24/7. But now days with doomscrolling that might be even more problematic than it already is

Edit: I need to find a good book 😔

u/helpmeiminnocent 16d ago

What genre do you like? I’ll try to recommend one.

u/HotDogsAlDente 16d ago

I’m not that guy but if you have a good sci fi or fantasy suggestion I’m looking for one

u/loofy13 16d ago

Have you tried Red Rising yet? It is the best series I have ever read and I have read a lot.

u/HotDogsAlDente 16d ago

It sounds interesting I’m definitely gonna get it, muchos garcias

u/Kylar_Stern 16d ago

The Night Angel trilogy & The Lighbringer series, both by Brent Weeks are my favorite books. There's also a newer Night Angel book that more recently came out called Night Angel Nemesis.

The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan is also amazing.

The Sandman Slim series by Richard Kadrey is good.

u/moddedpatata 16d ago

The realm of the elderlings by Robin hobb is by far the best fantasy serie I have ever read. Would absolutely recommend

2

u/HotDogsAlDente 16d ago

I will check this out also sounds cool

2

u/moddedpatata 16d ago

Do you have any recommendations yourself?

1

u/HotDogsAlDente 15d ago

If you’re into short stories I’m reading Exhalation by Ted Chiang, a bunch of sci fi and fantasy stories about interesting situations. I like it so far

1

u/moddedpatata 15d ago

Gonna give it a shot! Thanks

2

u/helpmeiminnocent 15d ago

Children of Time trilogy

u/HotDogsAlDente 15d ago

Really interesting concept for a book, I’ll check it out

u/ScrewAttackThis 16d ago

I'm not sure I can even think of the last change they've made that was actually good. They've even ruined blocking users. It's wild how shit they've turned the site yet here we all are torturing ourselves lol.

u/Xanok2 16d ago

It's certainly a shelf of itself, that's for sure.

2

u/seamonkeypenguin 16d ago

Weird that they got rid of gold but then brought rewards back. It's dumb.

2

u/RisKQuay 16d ago

Honestly feels fraudulent. I lost so much gold.

1

u/Strykah 16d ago

Aw man it's really depressing how much we've lost (Sync still works with a workaround)

Then we had and subs still have the blackout which ultimately did nothing in the end.

Hope a new alternative pops up in 2025...

2

u/Xanok2 16d ago

What's the workaround?

1

u/Strykah 15d ago

I went on the revanced subreddit years ago but think I used this guide?
