Welcome. I personally found it necessary because YouTube's algo kept giving mostly QOP nazi propaganda starting back in 2016.

 

I'm assuming it works fine, but wondering if anyone here has any experience with it... Obviously, the HDR feature won't work unfortunately...

Especially with Jerboa already in place, its IMO a good switch.

The one thing that worries me is all that useful info trapped on Reddit, if Lemmy data expires then that has a long term cost/loss which is sad.

Just that you support the lemmy community.

Something like 12 years I used Reddit, but they really nailed the coffin lid shut now.

Indeed, Reddit half died for me when they did the redesign, and I only used RiF after that, now its just dead to me.

Agree-ish. It needs the ability to open and display common link types, videos, images, etc.

RiF had an ok system for decisions about what to try and open/display.

For example, I prefer YouTube to open in NewPipe rather than an in app browser, but that might be different for you.
