Technology

RedReader, although not so much since Spez started his API stupidity. Personal preference, I like the basic, clean interface, which is also valued for accessibility. Jerboa's interface actually looks quite similar.

RIF for many years, switched to Infinity a year or two ago

I was a RedditIsFun/RiF user when I was mobile but mostly I was a keyboard user on a laptop/desktop.

I was losing interest in Reddit over recent years due to the mobile user influx (terse posters, lots of memes and TXT-speak) but thanks to the last few weeks, I have lost nearly all of my interest in Reddit.

I'm really not a joiner or a protester -- I'm rather pragmatic about all of this stuff. But the fact is that Reddit Inc. has by its actions alienated the users most responsible for making Reddit a thing that I enjoyed. It is already to late to recover from that.

Reddit Inc. could do a 180-degree turn today and it won't matter much. In the rough-and-tumble of all of Reddit Inc.'s self-inflicted nonsense, the users they lost (the heart of Reddits culture and spirt) have discovered life beyond Reddit. It looks doable. A month ago, that was fairly unthinkable. Come back? To what? The main reason for Reddit being compelling to me won't return, leaving behind a rather less-interesting Reddit community. I doubt it will attract me.

To me, this just shortened Reddit's long tail. Reddit was already dying a slow death, but this nonsense has made it faster. My current usage is now a small fraction of what it used to me (I have 100 MB of comments and posts submitted over the past 15 years). My guess is that there will be little left of interest in much shorter time span.

There's no way this poll is accurate. Just looking at the Play Store the official app has 100M+ downloads. The bext closest, rif, has 5M+. I think people underestimate how many casual users go straight to the official app and don't care about any of this is.

Well, I did. Now I don’t use Reddit at all. Apollo.

I used Sync up until last week.

Won't be back.

Used Apollo before, now I don't use it.

RIF was Reddit for me.

I used Apollo since it’s inception, and Alien Blue before that. Now I’ve deleted all Reddit apps and exclusively use kbin, for the last week or so.

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.

reddit is not fun anymore

Infinity!

Me for about 10 more days or so apparently.

Then it'll just be Jerboa on my phone because I refuse to install 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.

During my 13.5 years of Reddit, I've used at least these, in possibly this order

• Alien Blue (RIP)
• Bacon Reader
• Reddit is Fun
• Reddit Sync
• Joey, for the last ~6 years

Don't browse Reddit anymore, apps or browser. If I do end up visiting via Google, I use old.reddit.com.

I wouldn't say currently because I deleted it after moving to Kbin, but I was using RIF for as long as it existed and was a daily Reddit user for over 12 years. I've been happy using Kbin though this past week and have quickly seen subreddits migrating over and a lot more activity just in the past few days.

Relay

I used Infinity until I deleted my Reddit account in connection with the protests. Now I don't use Reddit at all.

Infinity, FOSS and on FDroid

I used Narwhal for a long time, switched to Apollo a couple of years ago.

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.

@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.

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

Apollo until last week. Deleted Reddit account.

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.

RIF for as long as I remember. No more. Sad to see it go. Looking forward to watching this new fediverse community grow.

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.

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 RedReader for many years. When the api changes were announced I was certain I would never use reddit before, as I usually browse it on the phone. I still want to migrate away from reddit fully, but since RedReader has an api exception it's going to be more difficult to break my addiction.

I used Apollo. Now I'm only using it to check whether Christian Selig commented on anything, but nothing more than that.

I plan to nuke my last remaining Reddit account on June 30th.

I've been using Slide basically since I started using Reddit.

It was the only client that fits all my requirement (it being FOSS and in F-droid being the most important one), while having a non-cluttered UI and a good dark theme.

It has basically been a dead project for 2 years but I never had any reason to move away from it.

Well, now that's I'm quitting Reddit, it's a good way to move away from it.

Used to use Apollo for Reddit (with pro)

Did. Libreddit. Now Lemmy only. #FediFTW

I recently bought RIF golden platinum just to give back to the dev, knowing that very soon the app will stop working. I'm hoping the dev could reuse his code and swap out the backend to make a lemmy client of the same caliber. It really is a good app.

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

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

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

I am/was using Sync Pro for 9+ years
