Wish it had a VR port.
Wait.... it does! I need to play Selaco.
Is there a sub-lemmy for bad crops? I'd like to submit this one to it if there is

:puke: "using reddit"
spoiler
I myself use it, but for very few comms (one piece and localllama and commandline)
It's redlib, at least reddit's not getting anything out of it?
data harvesting wise, yes, but they still get traffic, which means ads, which is money. I am not blaming you, reddit in some sense is cultural heritage of internet. I was mostly doing a joke bit (mentioning reddit on lemmy)
They can't sell any ads on views that come from redlib, because redlib gets the JSON for any requested page and generates its own UI based on that.
Any traffic to redlib is net negative for Reddit, which is partially why they put in so much effort in blocking it. (The effort is mostly to prevent scrapers wanting to train AI so that they can sell this data instead, but Redlib malfunctions all the same due to that)
do you think they report that distinction to the advertisers?
The ad tracking code doesn't load on JSON gets, so it would be pretty damn obvious
it is not net negative. they do not earn from you, but server (redlib) still counts as a visitor. what advertisers usually want is site wide traffic, and not individual people to advertise (that is more of google/meta job), so they still report the traffic to advertisers. if everyone switched to redlib, then no one will click on ads, and hence advertisers will not gain anything and stop paying.
Ad numbers are reported in the form of impressions, and clicks for said impressions.
