Slide VS stealth

Thank you kind stranger! I opened https://github.com/Haptic-Apps/Slide/issues/3485 with slightly different instructions (shaved off a couple of steps). For example Step 1 can be skipped by doing clone from repo in step 4.

TIL that Slide is also open source: https://github.com/Haptic-Apps/Slide

So long Slide and Infinity, ill see you again in the Fediverse

I didn't actually hear that they were doing API changes? I use Slide, so I guess for me one day in the future Reddit will just stop working.

Slide: intended for everyone, but Its lead developer was immediately open to addressing accessibility concerns, during the beta process, and u/MostlyBlindGamer was able to contribute several fixes for the TalkBack screen reader.

Which would be good open source 3rd party apps to test with? I found a couple of mobile apps, like https://github.com/Docile-Alligator/Infinity-For-Reddit and https://github.com/Haptic-Apps/Slide

FYI, Infinity and Slide are solid reddit apps and both open-source. I still prefer RIF, but in case your wish doesn't come true there are already at least two pretty good options.

I used to use Slide. Switched to Infinity after seeing it promoted on F-Droid. Both are great (with a preference for Infinity) and I will stop using reddit on mobile because I refuse to use their mobile app.

This project will be on indefinite hiatus for the foreseeable future, and may not be maintained. Updates are not guaranteed. See here for details.

See also: Stealth [https://gitlab.com/cosmosapps/stealth], which is a native Android app, and Teddit [https://codeberg.org/teddit/teddit], which is a mirror of Reddit, and also offers its own API.

You could also use Stealth, and open the settings to change the Reddit Source to teddit, which uses reddit's public RSS feeds for fetching data, so it wont be affected by reddit's API changes. It doesn't support commenting or posting, but it's still okay for browsing.

Stealth has a scraping-based option.

The above picture shows how Stealth, another Android app, has implemented alternative ways to get Reddit data without the API. Stealth is open source, so anyone can see how they've done it.

There is at least one app switching to scrapping: https://gitlab.com/cosmosapps/stealth/-/tree/master/app/src/main/java/com/cosmos/unreddit/data/remote/api/reddit/scraper. Not sure if that is an option? If its a ToS violation, I'm guessing it could impact publishing on the Play Store. This app is only available via side loading.

Stealth for Reddit sounds like what youre looking for!

the screenshot above is from the reddit client Stealth, which is a (purposely) limited reddit client where you can't log in but you can still make your own front page by following subs one by one and save liked post locally.

like in Stealth, move karma points under username and divider between comments/childs is a space, not lines.

Stealth (version 1.1.3): Stealth is an account-free, privacy-oriented, and feature-rich Reddit client.
