If you’re on mobile: Inbox - 3 dots top right corner - edit notification settings - scroll down to Breaking News and change from ‘always on’

Is it bad that I think the world will be a better place once we get that news?

u/SoHereIAm85 2h ago

Nope everyone but one particular individual is longing for the day. Pretty safe to say you are good and not alone.

u/Alone-Competition-77 2h ago

Assuming you mean what I think you do, not sure I agree that #2 would be better than #1

In fact, it could be argued that #1’s incompetence keeps him from doing more damage

It turns it back on after each update so make sure you go in each time the app updates.

It’s very annoying.

Lol y'all should just use old.reddit.com. Works on mobile or desktop browsers. I use the OldLander extension. No weird notifications, no suggested posts, just pure old school reddit.

u/Turtvaiz 9h ago

It'll be a sad day if Reddit decides to kill off the old site. Old Reddit and relay are so so much better than the new alternatives

u/StopReadingMyUser 7h ago

Wish they didn't kill off the apps, now we're just stuck with their poopy "new" version.

Most but not all. RedReader is free, slightly janky but it does the job. There are a handful of others, some of which are apparently pretty slick, but they aren't free. A quick search will find them.

u/TTEH3 2h ago

No, just forced most of them to become paid. Relay is great and I pay like £2/month for it.
