    After BaconReader shut down, my reddit usage plummeted to near 0. Only used it the last few days to Google interview questions from my desktop.

      I’ve used baconreader for well over a decade and stopped using the website almost entirely after the redesign (yes I do use old.reddit whenever I access the website. Probably just a coincidence/cell phone screens and batteries for big enough and that time). I just downloaded jerboa and it feels like a BR clone, I’m guessing they are built using the same libraries/frameworks.
