I don't understand why, but the Android app RIF / Reddit is fun still works when not logged in. It was supposed to be shut down.

Allegedly API pricing isn't enforced on accounts that mod subs

Also related: if you create a private subreddit on your account and mark it as NSFW (ie you are a moderator of a NSFW subreddit), you can view NSFW content through the API.

Title should be "Tedd.it is Shutting Down"

The name most frequently used on the About page seems to be Teddit. https://tedd.it/about

The official instance is teddit.net

The repository is here: https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit

Individual instances appear to be shutting down. This is one of them.

> Lemmy is the New Reddit

I hope so, but we need a winning instance first. When you search for Lemmy right now you're sent to a page that begins with "Join a Server... Run a Server". That kind of first experience will never replace Reddit.

Lemmy.world seemed to be winning the SEO battles in my Google search. Is that a good one?

Edit: Sorry for changing my entire post; I had incomplete information about Lemmy at the time.

You only need to create an account to post... have you ever looked at a post on Lemmy?

Huh? My experience consisted of visiting lemmy and signing up.

Also, and separately, huh? You can share links on lemmy without logging in. Look, here's one:

So, you can visit without being prompted to select a server. You can sign up without having to look through servers. And you can share links without logging in.

So what am I missing?

You're right; I rewrote my post. But you responded too fast for me to keep up!

I’m curious, are there any apps that are paying these new fees?

Even if you pay the new fees, no app is allowed to show "NSFW" content, which is now unavailable in the API. I'm tired of tech companies being run by puritans.

It's the credit card companies.

Showing users nudity for free is fine. Making them pay for it means you're selling porn and the payment processors ban you.

Reddit wants to make users pay for viewing content. They can't get away with that if the content is NSFW.
