    I really wish there were apps like LibreTube for all the other popular socials to circumvent “For You”.

      Amazon has started this bullshit “for you” crap with lists. You know wish lists, the things you create to keep track of stuff you’d like to purchase, or share with others as gift ideas? If you’re going there it’s because you are ready to make a purchase of something that you want or need. But making a purchase isn’t enough anymore? They’re like “look at all this other shit we’d rather have you buy, instead of the stuff you want to buy”. What in the actual fuck? Go away! Get fucked. Die!

      I personally am a big advocate of “no entertainment on mobile devices” whatsoever, but that said- I’ve played around with this modified version of Instagram and it’s pretty cool. I don’t think it changes the sort to chronological, but it does remove suggested content and allows users to turn off stories, reels and more (use at your own risk, I have no idea the safety of this).

        Is this open source or vetted in any way? I love the idea, but I don’t want to just install some apk from a random site.
