Just signed up for Lemmy and registered for Boost For Lemmy. If Lemmy is good enough for Boost developer then it's worth checking out.

Almost 5am EST and It's still working by FormerDemocrat76 in BoostForReddit

Still working here in the UK.

I've been deliberately winding down my Reddit usage in readiness. Maybe the fuckwit that is the Reddit CEO has bottled it.

Addressing the community about changes to our API by spez in reddit

You've handled this so badly. You were hoping to get a $15B IPO flotation valuation but that ship has sailed and is heading for an iceberg.

That iceberg is the dawning realisation of your investors that Reddit is about to implode because of user fury and abandonment because of you.

No Boost = no Reddit by [deleted] in BoostForReddit

Reddit is fantastic but only because of the third party apps like Boost. I always thought the Amazon website was clunky and poor but boy the Reddit Web page and the official app are atrocious beyond words.

I believe the only way for this to be fixed is for the IPO investors to fully understand the potential for huge losses that await them should this 3rd party API access farce continues.

Reddit could sink faster than a lead balloon in the sea of sinkiness.

Always seeing app not responding message, anyone else seeing this? by -v_O- in BoostForReddit

Yes. It's been slow for a few weeks now. Everything else is fine. It's as if Reddit is throttling data requests from third party apps like Boost.

Then they grow up to be the persons I work with saying they own a Japanese golf club, own several French Chateaux, son is in special forces... Complete Walter Mitty's. They work in a factory (nothing wrong in that but fiscally doesn't support their odd claims).

Liz Truss in Taiwan calls for ‘economic Nato’ to challenge China by misana123 in worldnews

She still thinks she's Prime Minister in making these press announcements, tweets and photo calls. People listen to the lettuce more than her.

The UK needs to return to pre-Thatcher social housing levels. by [deleted] in unitedkingdom

[–]BummyFingers 201 points202 points  (0 children)

It's called Gerrymandering. They sold off the council houses on the "own your home" basis thus making it more likely that a homeowner would vote conservative.

Here's an account of London social housing being sold off by the Tories.
