    I am 99% lurker and I joined a few weeks ago. I’ve been patiently waiting to see what happens with the amount and type of content after an assumed bump in activity when 3rd party apps go dark.

    I was an Alien Blue user for years before Reddit purchased it, then I was using Sync (and will be again soon with Sync for Lemmy). Reddit is essentially dead to me without 3rd party apps.

      I was also lurking without an account as I was waiting to see if reddit would get cold feet about pulling the plug (not that I had any real hope).

      For me it’s the principle of the thing. I don’t want to support a business that conducts itself that way.

      Same here. I’ve jumped between various apps but ended the last year on Sync after their major UI overhaul. I don’t plan on going back to Reddit due to the API issues. Looking forward to Sync for Lemmy!
