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.

I used Relay for years until I quit reddit a week ago.

Me for about 10 more days or so apparently.

Then it'll just be Jerboa on my phone because I refuse to reinstall that piece of crap official Reddit app entirely. If a Google search takes me to Reddit for an answer I'll just use my browser until they eventually kill that too probably.

That poll isn't going to get good results because a lot of 3PA users have already left reddit

I used to use Boost, I stopped when they banned the community showing how to switch to kbin.

I use 3: RedReader, Stealth & Relay

I preferred the /.compact version of Reddit. They disabled it a few months back and all the alternatives suck.

Yes, Relay. Not nearly as much as before the whole API situation, but i still use it occasionally.

Bought multiple copies of Sync Pro and Ultimate. Apollo was good, RiF was great but Sync Pro was GOD! The GOAT!

Still holding out hope that ljdawson does a sync pro for lemmy. Hope he at least adds a splash page on the 30th explaining why the app no longer works and where to go.

Relay Pro. Stopped going.

10 years on Relay. I've stopped going now.

I have Apollo Ultra, because I really appreciated the work that went into making the app so pleasant. I also was a reddit subscriber for over a decade ( since 2011 ). Already cancelled the subscription, and when Apollo goes dark I think my use of reddit will plummet. Pretty much just browser access with adblock on.

@lostwonder Yup, I use Infinity, and I'll keep it installed until it no longer works, but I'm just trying not to use Reddit at all now.

RIF for a few years and Apollo for a few months, since both are going down I don't really have any incentive to stay on Reddit

I used to use rif. Now, if a search brings me to reddit, I use my web browser, but I haven't directly gone to reddit since the subreddits went dark.

Sync for years, then when the dev had done one of his up-and-disappear-for-half-a-year's I switched to Boost. Now I just won't use Reddit.

I've exclusively used Relay for years until earlier this week. I've popped in a few times to see how things were going. According to my screen time usage app I've used Relay for under 10 minutes this week. Prior to that I was spending anywhere hour plus daily.

Apollo. So no more reddit for me when the app shuts down officially.

I wish Christian would made an Apollo-like app for the Fediverse.

I'm looking for a gradual transition from Reddit to Lemmy. To make things easier, I started to use Redreader. Man, I wish I'd done this switch earlier.

Redreader's dev has expressed interest on Lemmy compatibility, so when (if) this happens, I know which app I'll be using.

Used Sync for Reddit for few years. I paid for pro version after just few hours of using (super simple setup etc). Now I am enjoying kbin via mozilla and it is great.

Well, I technically still use Boost, though I haven't really used reddit since the 11th.

I use Boost on Android.

Red Reader is my main app, but I use it a lot less than before because I'm slowly moving to Lemmy. Still on there for now to shitpost where it's been newly allowed.

I used a 3rd party app for years until last week. The bridge is burned I'm not going back.

I started with RIf for ten first few years and then switched over to Sync. I loved the customization that Sync provides

I just uninstalled BaconReader. Long time user. Deleted the accounts that weren't banned for wrongthink.

I was on digg but was slow to get on Reddit. Wasn’t until Apollo that it became regular part of my daily routine. Without the app I wouldn’t have been as engaged.

Used to use Apollo, but traded my iphone to get back to Android a week ago. Perfect timing to be honest, haven't been on Reddit since.

I'm still using Apollo and am trying to get used to Feddit but it's hard, to be honest. On Reddit I'd know I'd get shittons of downvotes for saying this ;-)

Have used various third party apps in the past, won't name, they've never been too bad.

Usually neater and pay homage to the original style of Reddit as a long form text based forum,. From what I've seen, the official Reddit app and front page on desktop has evolved into a Facebook style newsfeed of images and short videos.

Not my jam

Sync, but I already got rid of it and my Reddit stuff.

Still have Apollo installed to use it until the last day. Been using less and less thou in recent 1-2 weeks.

Yup, that's why I ended up here. Used RIF on my phone, and can only stand Reddit on browser through RES on old.reddit. Gonna lose the RIF at the end of the month, and old.reddit's undeniably approaching death will make me stop going back there too.

RiF for 9 years

Libreddit

I was using Apollo before... well... you know, everything.

The only open question is, whether at least one of the popular apps will transition Lemmy. This should doable since the concept is so similar.

The world needs good Fediverse apps. If they include mastodon, we can say good bye to Musk's twitter as well.

RIF, though I haven't visited Reddit in the last week. Call it me training for the 30th

Naturally.
