Btw for those who don’t know, this app is called Blind. It’s where tech workers go to anonymously post. Also 700k TC is basically their yearly take-home pay, and it’s a real number (see levels.fyi)

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5

These people are disgusting, contributing nothing to society, not realizing how privileged they are, while the Lemmy devs live in poverty

      If you’re referring to Reddit, then yes, Reddit is trash

      If you’re referring to Blind, it’s too small of a platform for anyone to have made an adblocking Android version. I could run an ad blocking DNS but I’m dumb :(

        There’s a handful of Android apps that very efficiently run as a mini VPN service on your phone, using custom DNS and blocklists. Then your phone connects to the “VPN” running from the app to do adblocking etc. You can set up specific rules and bypasses per app as needed.

        I use Blockada 4, but I think they’ve went paid in 5 and up. There’s also DNS66 and RethinkDNS.

        oh yeah, I was talking about reddit.

        But can’t you just use Blind on Firefox with ublock origin installed on an Android device? I just did it to access the website.
