I haven’t used twitter since they blocked access to 3rd party apps. Twitter, Reddit and HN are sites I really only use on my mobile through 3rd party apps along with Omnivore to save interesting articles to read later.

For me, Reddit and Twitter are simply not worth visiting using mobile web or first party apps because the ratio of crap I don’t want to see (ads and promoted content) is too high vs the content I came to see.

YouTube is going the same way, I use multiple adblock rules to hide “shorts”, “people also searched for”, and “people also watched”. I pay for YouTube premium but feel like a mug for paying for a service which tries to force feed me content I don’t want. I’m on the brink of cancelling the subscription.
