In support of third party apps such as the BaconReader app which is developed in Kansas City, /r/kansascity is going private in protest on reddit's announced changes to their policies regarding reddit API and these third party apps. You can find out more here. Source: almost 1 year ago

On May 31, 2023, Reddit announced they were raising the price to make calls to their API from being free to a level that will kill many useful third party apps on Reddit, from Apollo to Reddit is Fun to Narwhal to BaconReader. Source: about 1 year ago

BaconReader: intended for everyone, with improved support for screen magnification, changing text size, colour contrast changes, and screen readers. Source: about 1 year ago

Image previews by default is a new reddit thing. Most people that have been around since before the redesign use https://old.reddit.com with RES (or use classic-style mobile apps like BaconReader) and think new reddit is worse than pre-nerf Brig.

I just use BaconReader on my phone. :) Not too fond of Reddit's interface-changes, so I also use the old interface on desktop. Source: almost 3 years ago
