As a 12 yr Reddit lurker, Geddit fits all my needs. It sidesteps the api using rss feeds and other technical stuff I don’t know about. You can view posts and comments. Favorite subreddits. But can’t post/comment/vote. I’m trying my hand at engaging more on lemmy, but for more content, Geddit is perfect for me.

        I said traffic. You said ads.

        Keep in mind companies make money in more ways than ads.

        A companies valuation includes an estimate for the worth of each active user…about $1 or more per registered email.

        Site traffic is also counted, because although those users are anonymous they are still eyeballs.

        Also, it is trivially easy to include ads over RSS. This may happen at some point.

        Until then, you are giving your traffic to reddit, helping boost their value before IPO.

        As for costing reddit traffic, my sweet summer child… RSS is 1000% more efficient than reddit’s app or web ui.

    I’ve found that Geddit only shows a selection of comments, instead of all of them. (Top comments, maybe?) Is there a setting for that or is that a limitation of the RSS?

    Edit: The latest update dropped and gives us threaded comments. They aren’t great… but there’s potential. Still only a selection of comments.

    Doesn’t the newest version of RiF also do the same thing? It still works on my end but I’m logged out.
