@lostwonder Used to have Infinity for Reddit on my Android.

Uninstalled it now.

I don't plan to use reddit anymore if I can help it, other than to find specific answers to things. I'll no longer just browse. That said, up until now I exclusively used RiF. I refuse to touch the official app, and use old.reddit and ad blockers.

Used to use Sync pro

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.

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.

Currently, as in up until the blackout: yes, Baconreader. I used it so exclusively that I only really know reddit as BR shows it to its users and I felt uncomfortable and a bit confused on old and new web reddit. I missed all the "innovations" new Reddit brought, never knew what people were talking about when they mentioned avatars and apparently missed all chats that were ever sent to me because BR would only show messages and comment replies. So without BR, to me there will be no reddit, because I wouldn't be willing to invest time into getting to know reddits official app. One, because it looks absolutely terrible and two, because I'm tired being treated like this by big corporations. You want to shit all over your user base, you won't get any of my data or money any more. Simple as that

I used Joey for about a year but since the blackout it's been uninstalled

Boost user here, sad to see it go :(

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

I've been using boost for a while now. Just felt right for me.

I used BaconReader for a long time and then switched to Relay several years ago. I'm going to miss it dearly.

Slide for Reddit was my app of choice. Now I'm just waiting for my CCPA data export request to come back to me. Once that's done, all the old accounts are going in the shredder.

Been on Reddit since 2009ish before they had an app. I used reddit is fun, baconreader, relay and then sync lasted the longest. When I moved to iOS I grabbed Apollo which was the closest experience to sync. I've been off Reddit for over a week now. Deleted my apps, deleted most of my accounts. There's some things I still miss that I haven't found replacement for, namely some niche discussions (wrestling, destiny 2) but I'm sure I'll find something.

Libreddit

I use RIF

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.

Just wanted to ask if Lemmy has an iOS that is not in TestFlight or has its beta full.... Or should we just make one!

I've used Boost for years.

@lostwonder Does #libreddit count? Then yes.

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.

Reddit is Fun back when I was on Android. Apollo once I moved to iOS. I will sorely miss Apollo.

Naturally.

Used Reddit is Fun. Obviously not anymore.

I wouldn't say "currently", but I used to use Infinity.

Sync!
