Friendship ended with Reddit. Now Lemmy is my best friend.

In the last years nearly every new feature just made Reddit worst.

Just wait until they remove the option to disable it and give some corporate speak excuse that they're reducing confusion for users.

I was wondering what the hell that was! Turning that off straight away.

And they somehow figured out how to update the old design too. They couldn’t add any useful feature because of the legacy code but this goes live everywhere at once.

I posted this news on my subreddit with instructions on how to disable it.

Thank you but I'll take GDPR instead!

And of course this can't be disabled in the old design even though it is active there.

It can actually, it's under privacy settings in preferences. I'm not trying to justify this feature btw.

Ah you are right! I missed it and my searches didn't have the right keywords.
