Infinity!
I've used Boost for years.
Boost on android and Apollo on my iPad. Absolutely fantastic apps that made the experience so much better. I don't even remember the last time I used the ofifical reddit app. Though, I haven't used reddit since the blackout began.
Yes, Infinity. Actually I used the official Reddit app until all of this hit the news. Then I deleted that app and switched to Infinity. When infinity goes, I'll delete it and I'm done with Reddit except on an alt account on my desktop. And that will just be for correspondence.
Reddit is Fun back when I was on Android. Apollo once I moved to iOS. I will sorely miss Apollo.
I use Joey, a lesser known but very customizable app for reddit. But I've reduced my participation there.
Well, I technically still use Boost, though I haven't really used reddit since the 11th.
Always used RIF, the stock Reddit app has always been unusably terrible.
I definitely have used a client for years, that being RedReader. They actually managed to get a non-commercial accessibility api requirements exemption. The creator of it may be interested in adding support for accessing Lemmy and similar federated networks within the same app. That would actually be a great idea, I really hope they can make my favorite client a all in one. https://reddit.com/comments/145du4j
Relay Pro (android) use to be the app I've used for reddit, but I uninstalled it at the start of the debacle and will not be returning to reddit for the foreseeable future due to the nature of what reddit has become. It is no longer a community lead platform and instead a thing owned by a larger company with leadership that just wants to make money off of the people who use it. I believe the fediverse to be the future of the community that made reddit what it was and that community should not be owned by any one company/organization. There will definitely be growing pains and decisions to be made here on how best to handle so many things, but I have confidence in the community that it will be sorted out and we will get through the growing panins. It will result in a much better platform that will help take us through to the next stage of worldwide community, connectedness, and information sharing.
Not currently using Reddit, but I started out with baconreader, and have been using Joey for a few years now.
I use Redder on iPad for the last several years. It apparently hasn’t been updated in 2 years, and I have no idea if there is a userbase of any size.
Just bought the Mac version of Redder about two months ago….
Apollo on my iPad and Sync on my Android phone.
I use teddit, a privacy frontend for reddit. Doesn't support logging in, but I haven't had a reddit account for a few years now.
I used BaconReader for a long time and then switched to Relay several years ago. I'm going to miss it dearly.
I used a variety of 3rd party reddit apps (reddit is fun, slide, and infinity), but deleted my account after the API mess. I've been using Jerboa with Lemmy the last week or two
I used to use Teddit.net and Stealth on F-Droid before the u/spez tomfoolery.
Apollo user here.
Former Apollo user here.
Apollo for me. I'll miss it... unless a miracle happens.
I used Baconreader on Android but I may have subscribed to RSS at one time too. 14 years but not so much recently.
Such a useless poll
No, and I don't give a shit about them or app developers. Sorry, i know I am supposed to fIGhT ThE PoWeR or something, but couldn't care less. Fed up of reading about it, in fact I'll probably stop using beehaw because that's all there is to read - reddit this reddit that. BORING
I’m not on Reddit right now; but I was on Apollo since it came out, feels like about 10y right now.
I used Apollo on iOS and Sync Pro for Android. Deleted my account of fifteen years though
I used Apollo for over 5 years. Before that, I had an Android, so I used Baconreader and later Relay. Before THAT, I used Alien Blue.
Ever since the blackout, I have only visited Reddit once. Definitely making Lemmy my primary forum nowadays.
I used Apollo until roughly a week ago or so when I started to detach from Reddit. Now it‘s since been uninstalled.
Apollo still works. I will use it until it does not. And then - cold turkey.
My main reason to rush was that I felt disgusted any time I opened it, because I kept seeing comments from people who didn‘t give a fuck and supported spez. I’m used to feeling like shit and doom when browsing Reddit, but disgust was a new one.
So I pulled the plug early and overall, I feel good here now, I can share in some negative news about Reddit which makes me feel less alone and also participate in new and growing communities, it‘s awesome.
Only thing I miss is the app, Apollo was a wonderful app and you could tell a labor of love, RIP. I can see why you might want to use it till its last day.
Apollo (and Alien Blue before that back in the day).
Reddit didn't have a third party app (just the compact and mobile interface) when I used it, so I picked up an app and never left.
I mostly use Alien Blue and Apollo, both of which are almost certainly on the chopping block. I tried the official Reddit app for a little bit, but my iPad Mini 2 is too old and slow for it, so it tends to crash almost instantly, or run rather poorly.
On my phone, I started with relay, but moved to Redreader and Infinity, since they were open source, and have better performance compared to Relay. I still keep relay around for the message notifications, since they're better than the other two apps.
I use to use bacon reader but now here I am
Technology
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.
