I’m here because Apollo is shutting down… it was too good to last
Saw the post about Apollo yesterday. This is my first post on Lemmy, today.
Solidarity.
That’s exactly why I moved to lemmy
Same here but because of Sync.
Sync is officially shutting down too? /:

rif too 😭
seeing that message yesterday sent me through all 5 stages of grief. after about an hour of that, I made an account here.
cheers to new beginnjngs
Relay dev said the same thing. It’s like even if I wanted to use Reddit on mobile, I can’t because the main app is literally unusable.
We’ll probably see a lot of traffic to Lemmy by then. Hope the servers are ready to handle an influx.
The only way I’ve enjoyed Reddit in Android, for almost 10 years. Rip RIF.
I had bought the premium version 8 years ago for just like ~$3-5. that was such a great deal. i loved the ui and how smooth it worked. they never integrated all those new awards. it was just nice and clean.
RIP RIF. it’s the end of an era.
sad day, RIP
I really really hate to see Apollo go, but at the same time, I hope other Reddit app devs follow suit. Absolute trash way that Reddit is treating not only their devs, but users too.

Saw this notification yesterday when I opened the App. I guess I’m deleting my Reddit account that day. It really is a shame—it was such a good app, and the developer seems like such a chill person.
Long time Reddit user; new Lemmy user. 14 years to be precise. I’m already loving how good the community is and how positive the content is without all them bots. I’ll do my best to contribute!
I have a feeling we’ll see Apollo, the Lemmy edition soon enough.
Oh I really hope
This was the line for me. Apollo had great tools and filters which made Reddit usable. Even bearable. I can’t be bothered to wade through the swamp without it.
A well-placed Pelosi
i do have to wonder why pelosi was added to the meme 🤔
I literally just bought an iPhone with a large part of that decision being the ability to use Apollo. I’m absolutely devastated. That app is a hardware seller. It’s the iOS equivalent of a Zelda title on a Nintendo console.
My first though was “really? No way” and then I thought about how much I use and love Apollo. Yeah, I get it now.
F for Apollo. 3rd party user here. As long as they pulled the plug on 3rd party apps, Reddit is dead and buried for me.
Fucking hell, I was so depressed when I opened the app to see this message.
I will miss Apollo! I will go support Pixel Pals and give Christian my money that way.
My pixel cat is FAT AF. Homeboy got up to like 65lbs so perhaps it’s good I take a break from Apollo.
I don’t even use Apollo because I don’t have iphone but rip because all third party app is gonna go down if Reddit don’t change
