what? im pretty sure thats apples doing as android and desktop has plugins.

im worried that not everyone that migrated was reddits finest.

in that case, tildes.net has a fine search feature.

not to mention thats assuming youre buying all new hardware.

ive never heard of it, i looked at it a little and it seems to be more of a self host thing, which is a potential nightmare for a casual users sanity and security. feel free to clarify if im mistaken.

brave blocks ads IN and out of the (mobile web) yt video player, and plays video in the background(lockscreen) with no setup at all out of the box.

to my knowledge there is not a single other first party app on the ios app store that does this.

no problem! it may act like other browsers before you enable background play in the browsers options menu.

to my knowledge plugins only exist for android, as i said im on ios so brave is the only option without sideloading or running old firmware for jailbreak.

on mobile i use brave because its the only app on ios that will background play youtube com videos without a fuss while also removing video player ads (among the rest).

if firefox allowed a plugin, or just supported this feature outright, i would have 0 reason not to use firefox on all of my devices.

i wish theyd stop sleeping on users like me.

e: hate me all you want for it, im still right.

especially whenever the opposing reason is “no thanks, not for me”

there are other apps that have this feature, and im glad it does. that and no tolerance for ads are large reasons i chose the app i have, sorry sync. <3

and memmy is free with no ads… what new does this app bring to justify ads and costs?

also, youve gotta remember that half of the people still on reddit are super-casual users who would likely never switch to a “harder” platform. a lot of people that are using reddit right now at this moment are people that havent been on it since 2009, theyre people that are still enjoying their first experience with a forum board type community because they come from facebook, snap and instagram. i can sympathize with it.

given that the other super mainstream online platforms are absolutely infested with ads, nannying, bots and inorganic interactions, its no surprise that theres still a huge amount of people that that just dont know better or give enough of a shit about it.

its kinda like more of the same in a different format for them.
