Reddit is the worst Lemmy alternative
What they will do to get you on their app…
I’m tempted to install the app and mod myself a /r/u_username sub just to see what chaos I can cause over on the big subs.
… or is that what they EXPECT me to do…?
Nope. The only winning move is not to play.
Wish they had gone through with it. The app is just a front-end that sends requests to the server, presumably the server is where authentication happens (otherwise everyone could just pull up dev tools on their desktop and become insta-mods of any sub with a few tweaks). That being said, if it was a server-side bug, then they have a big problem; otherwise it’s just little more than a graphical error.
Oh man I would have decimated that comment section.
This is genius because you basically grew your mod count for certain subreddits by “borrowing” from other subreddit mods.
