First you have to install the revanced manager onto your phone.

Then uninstall the play store Reddit app if you still have it. And install a version of Reddit from here I believe you want a bundled version but it’ll tell you if that’s wrong when you try patch it with revanced.

Finally open the revance manager and find Reddit, click the patches you want - it’s quite limited still and you’ll probably only want to select the remove ads patch but have a read, there might be 2 or 3 you want. If there’s an error try downloading a slightly older Reddit apk.

Guys, I’ve gone back. Turns out you can get Reddit revanced and remove the ads/promoted posts so I’m fine with the Reddit app now. I’m kinda using both but there’s just so much more content on Reddit.

I just check 1337x’s trending torrents for movies and TV most days when I turn my computer on. Works well enough for me unless it’s a much smaller show. I didn’t notice What We do in the Shadows was back for 3 weeks because not enough people DL it for it to be in the top 100.

I’ve only got a out 1.5tb but if I ditched Netflix I’d need to download 10+ shows with hundreds of episodes. I’ve already got a few 6+ season shows on my Plex but it’s mostly 1-2 season newer shows because everything has segregated so much in the past few years. If you don’t have Disney+ and want to see all the marvel shit, it’s adding up quick. It’s not like I’m rewatching all this stuff, I have 300 movies and rewatch one or two maybe once a year. I just keep everything because it’s not very expensive to me. If I need more space I’ll drop £100 and have storage for the next 5+ years.

Then there’s the people who download 25gb 4k movies and shit, I will occasionally but I don’t like to do it.

I sub for the skip intros alone, turns out it affects everyone who watches on your server which is great.

I don’t really utilise any other aspects of Plex Pass but £4 isn’t much to me and Plex is insanely useful to me.

Anyone who would’ve left Reddit has already done so, they may be a small increase when Boost/sync becomes available but I doubt we’ll see much growth. No one has ever heard of Lemmy.

Podcasts on what? I listen to most of my podcasts on YouTube so sponserblock takes care of that.

Have you tried listening to them on YouTube? I find most people I want to listen to upload them there too.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

Nope.

You don’t need to port forward or anything for Plex to work outside your network, right? That’s the whole point of Plex. All my friends can access my server wherever.

I went back onto Reddit today and like 20 posts in popular had 5k+ comments. I really miss the variety but, we’ll get there.

It’s kinda annoying how many instances there are. Lemmy isn’t popular enough for each sub to have 5 or 6 segregated subs for each topic.

You don’t need to watch them, but the possibility to post is still better for the community. The porn side of Lemmy will be a shadow of it’s former Reddit self without videos/ability to play redgifs videos in app. Then you have the dog videos, and then the TikTok videos which you might not like but it’s undeniable they draw a crowd.

Thing is, with videos, which I’m assuming will come eventually, it will be the best one for me. Most social media feeds are awful, looking at you Instagram, TikTok and Reddit default app. Far too much soggested content.

I’d just much rather it play in app, hoping Boost is able to play links natively without having to open them.

It’s all about ease of use, I don’t want to click on a bunch of links, it’s easier to scroll, watch, scroll. Also, I haven’t even seen links to videos, video posts are wayyyyyy down.

Nah, lemmy is still definitely the losing option. A fraction of the content for now and you can’t post videos yet, hope that changes.
