Trying to quit Reddit : memes

I as lucky enough to use Apollo. As soon as it stopped working, Reddit became useless to me.

(Or not useful enough to use their horrendous website, old.reddit website or official app)

Yupp, as soon as i could no longer use RiF, I was done. Trying to mod a small community using the official app was basically impossible.

Yep. The end of RIF and I went cold Turkey. I had already prepared by deleting/overwriting all of my content so leaving was easy. My three accounts combined had truckloads of karma, glad I am not chasing after that bullshit anymore.

Boost just stopped working for me yesterday

That's what got me back here but then I found out how a custom ReVanced patch could be used to make it work again. The addiction can now continue uninterrupted!

I found it really easy to quit Reddit. The trick is to engage in conversation with a maga, say exactly what you think, and let the permaban system do the rest! 😉

This to me reads that you have a serious self control issue. If you need to use an app to limit your use of another app, you've fucked up. Learn and practice some self control. You don't need a timer, you don't need to remove the app or get yourself banned, just stop using it. This is like needing to have your parents tell you to do your homework or something. You are in control of your life. You will feel much more empowered if you do it yourself.

Sometimes people need help starting good behaviors. Trying, and failing repeatedly is extremely demoralizing and can cause people to give up.

Don't shit on people for trying to make a good change in a different way that what works for you. They are not you.
