I used to use Narwhal app but I don't go to Reddit anymore.

I was a huge fan of Sync, the Material You implementation was the best on Android, bar none.

I use to use bacon reader but now here I am

Slide and now RedReader.

Not currently using Reddit, but I started out with baconreader, and have been using Joey for a few years now.

I was using Sync for years and years. This month, I deleted all my Reddit accounts. That was a well polished app and I'll definitely miss it, but I'm not really missing Reddit itself.

My 11 year account has been using nothing but third-party apps for Reddit on mobile. First Narwhal, then Alien Blue, finally Apollo.

Reddit didn't have a third party app (just the compact and mobile interface) when I used it, so I picked up an app and never left.

I mostly use Alien Blue and Apollo, both of which are almost certainly on the chopping block. I tried the official Reddit app for a little bit, but my iPad Mini 2 is too old and slow for it, so it tends to crash almost instantly, or run rather poorly.

On my phone, I started with relay, but moved to Redreader and Infinity, since they were open source, and have better performance compared to Relay. I still keep relay around for the message notifications, since they're better than the other two apps.

I use Redder on iPad for the last several years. It apparently hasn’t been updated in 2 years, and I have no idea if there is a userbase of any size.

Just bought the Mac version of Redder about two months ago….

Such a useless poll

Never was a heavy user. I was using infinity, uninstalled before api change was announced actually.

Apollo (and Alien Blue before that back in the day).

[-] nickb333@beehaw.org 1 points 2 years ago

I used Baconreader on Android but I may have subscribed to RSS at one time too. 14 years but not so much recently.

[-] Beep22@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

Apollo for years. I check in on Reddit occasionally and will until month end.

I used Apollo until roughly a week ago or so when I started to detach from Reddit. Now it‘s since been uninstalled.

Apollo for the past years that I've been on iOS and BaconReader before that on Android
