The exposed metal looks like it would saw through pockets in record time. What's your experience been?

Aegis: 2fa. Free, open source.

Auto Auto-rotate: per app rotation settings. Free, open source.

Missed notifications reminder: adds a repeating sound or vibration if a watched app has an active notification. Ie, you got an email when you were away from your phone so every few minutes your phone makes a beep or whatever so you don't need to check the screen constantly. Free, open source.

MJ PDF: simple, fast PDF reader. Free, open source.

Snap drop: web based instant file transfer between devices. Free, open source.

X-Plore: the only file manager that ever clicked for me. Dual pane that's really intuitive. Absolutely packed with features (connects with local network, cloud providers, ftp, ssh, dlna, has file sync)

This was reposted to reddit dozens of times.

...but now that we're here, does the counter reset? Does an old repost now become a new post? Philosoraptor wants to know.

Those answers were disappointingly evasive. The questions were clear and he chose non-answers. Yuck.

Same. Made an account there Saturday, after checking for another user with the same name. For a 404 error, tried to sign up, and got stuck with a spinner when trying to log in.

Reddit no longer cares about traffic that does not result in ad impressions. That potentially millions of 3rd party app users may leave has nothing but good consequences in their eyes (less resources spent on free users), and if even 1% of those convert to their 1st party apps or website that's a net gain for them.

The blackout is meant to show these users are not freeloaders but are part of the backbone of the content and interaction within these communities. Having ad networks take notice is a good thing for the protest, but if it will be a flash in the pan it won't cause any meaningful change.

I think many people were caught in the hype that they couldn't get this perspective. Two days was never going to mean anything in the short term, and reddit had everyone backed into a powerless position from the very start of the API. Consequences to HQ from here on will be hard to quantify and drawn out, but imho they're still squarely on the path of enshitification.
