Well... Not anymore I don't
Yeah, seems like this poll is missing an important “I did before leaving Reddit” option.
Same. Used both RIF and Apollo through the years. Haven’t used anything for a week now.
I use Infinity since its open source
Also available on fdroid (until July 1st, of course)
Goodbye, infinity. It was good while it lasted. 🫡
RiF for 10 years.
Define "currently"... I still have rif on my phone but I haven't used Reddit in a week
Yeah, "currently" is the wrong adverb to use. Relay and Boost were common apps I used and pretty much the only means I used to access Reddit. I only touched the desktop web app when I got a web search link.
I use Infinity and have found it to be absolutely excellent. I wish I could continue to use it rather than leave altogether.
I am also a long time infinity user, Jerboa feels fairly similar to me.
This will be an insanely biased poll
I mean, kind of...
I use Sync and still have it installed, but now it just aggravates me when I open it. Not because of Sync, but because Reddit is just... bleh.
Maybe I'll uninstall it later, but I'm tired and lazy. Not like I have a longtime account to delete since I coincidentally did that over a month ago for other reasons.
Do need to delete the one a I made a few weeks ago for NSFW shit. I'm sure Reddit will really miss having that 3 karma account.
I've used RIF for nearly 10 years. I can't stand the current state of the official app. It spends far too much time harassing you with useless notifications/info/recommendations for my taste and it's a laggy mess.
Use Apollo and now only open/upvote posts and polls about the resistance.
RiF since I found Reddit so many years ago. I've tried others but they never stuck.
I use(d) Infinity
Sync for reddit pro for years, now using a browser for kbin.social.
Sync IS Reddit to me since I haven't used my desktop for primary browsing of the site in years. It's a shame Reddit is disappearing shortly.
I've been using boost for a little over a year. I have not be on since the blackout started.
I have used Boost on Android for years.
Apollo was great while it lasted
Was a big fan of RedReader.
I've been using Relay for maybe 10 years? It's a bit of an underdog and doesn't get spoken about a lot, but over the years I've tried a bunch of Reddit apps and Relay is the one I liked the most.
It used to be called "Reddit News" until Reddit cracked down on apps using "Reddit" in their name. Their rules changed to only allow "for Reddit" at the end of the name, so Reddit News became "Relay for Reddit", rif (Reddit is Fun) became "rif is fun for Reddit", etc.
I'm the same. Relay is so slick and I'm gutted about what is happening. Even if the dev manages to keep Relay going, I don't want to support a company like Reddit who seem happy to shit all over their userbase in pursuit of profit.
Before all this kerfluffle with the API, I have used Reddit is Fun for mobile for several years. I will be really bummed to see it go.
When I was using reddit, I used Boost.
Boost is still my favorite. I'm done after the third party apps are gone. Going to block Reddit in my router to stop me on desktop haha.
I used apollo, but I've not been on it since the protests started. Not going back to Reddit either now
Relay is what I use
infinity
Currently? No I deleted my accounts, when I still had them though I used infinity
Relay. The official app can go fuck itself.
I used Infinity but now I don't even use Reddit at all.
Boost for Reddit is awesome!
Even if by some miracle the 3rd party apps survive, too late.
Fuck Spez... I'm out. (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
When I was using Reddit, I used RIF.
Rif. Working on understanding this ui
Currently? No, because I quit reddit.
But when I was on reddit, I used Relay For Reddit Pro.
RIF user of many years. Pissed at Reddit. Although I see the financial motive for the API, the scumbag disingenuous moves have me believing it has jumped the social media shark and I had to move on.
Loved RIF, will miss the niches of Reddit, and this APIcalypse has opened my eyes to the deeper values of Reddit, but change is inevitable though.
I used RIF for over a decade, it did everything I wanted so I never sought out an alternative.
I used too. Paid for Apollo until Christian started spamming ads for ultra and went back on his word that subscriptions were only to cover ongoing costs like servers for notifications.
So I went to ReddPlanet. Who’s also shutting down.
I haven’t been on Reddit in about a week though. I’m not too keen on the lemmy devs stances politically and will probably move to kbin when the documentation and setup gets fleshed out better.
If "currently" means before the debacle (because I don't use Reddit currently): no, I'm primarily a desktop user, I used old Reddit and RES and I don't really have much personal attachment to 3rd party apps (that doesn't mean I won't stand with those who do).
I think that the API issue is more of a symptom of something much more deeply wrong with Reddit, if it wasn't the API it would have been some other breaking point.
I've used both RiF and Sync, and between the two of them I'd probably say Sync was my favorite. I hope both of the devs land on their feet, they produced amazing apps.
I used Infinity until I deleted my Reddit account in connection with the protests. Now I don't use Reddit at all.
I was using rif for years, I don't see myself ever downloading the reddit app partly because it sucks but now I have a bad taste in my mouth after all this. If they had of just improved their own app and left the third party ones alone I probably would have used it.
I used Baconreader, Relay, and in 2014 got Sync pro and have used that ever since.
I stopped using reddit for the blackout and have been trying Jerboa and /kbin since then.
Didn't even know what a 3rd party app was until the protests (never used reddit on my phone to limit the amount of time spent there, and was never very tech savvy).
Left because of other reasons, like a couple mods of communities I love packing up and leaving and the sheer principle of it all.
