      It was already shit before the API exodus in June 2023 thus killing alienblue and other loved clients…

      Was an OG user from inception. Haven’t been back since. Any time I want or need to view certain things (seldom) RedLib instances work well. You can always set up an rss feed from one and get chronological content if you wanted.

      https://redlib.catsarch.com/ is one of many that has been stable for awhile.

          Don’t think it matters for a redlib instance. Just checked and it’s definitely still working.

            Neat! How do you get an RSS feed from Redlib?

            E: the instance you linked says it has RSS disabled…

        redlib (while permabanned) is a bit like being kicked out of the bar and staring back in through the window. You can look, sure, but a bar is about interacting and getting drunk. You are doing neither.

          That’s not the point. I nuked my would be 20+ year old account. I don’t care about interacting (with bots and lots of kids).

            Given how the site has legitimately gotten worse since I was kicked off it back in May, I’m actually kind of glad I got off the ship before it went to pot. Besides, I don’t want to just make another account. I want MY account. It’s a matter of principle even if I never go back.
