    This falls under #4 - it’s very similar to other Reddit discussions and I feel like we’re just looking back rather than forward.

      I didn’t even realize how long I’d been using Apollo until all this stuff happened. It’s been the only way I’ve used Reddit for five years. Not having access to it anymore really hurts. Christian did such a phenomenal job of making Apollo feel incredibly intuitive and customizable without feeling overly cluttered. I’m really going to miss spending my time lurking over there.

        Damn, me too. It sounds so cheesy but it was really integral to me in keeping up with news, etc, etc, etc. I hate that Reddit did all that.

      Same here, and then I found Memmy for Lemmy and it’s like I just moved to another state that’s just like home

      Yeah it’s been many years but I remember trying the official reddit app and it simply didnt work. I installed rif and it was perfect. I used rif for many years. Countless hours just scrolling my carefully curated subs.

      So sad. When I launched it and it gave me an error that day the api changes kicked in, it felt like a friend just died.

      Snif.

      I think the fediverse might just be ok tho. These networks taking off right now are thanks to spez. Lol.

      I so dearly miss having multiple columns on the browsing page, so I can feel less like a Facebook user. Connect has been treating me well though and feels very familiar.

      Really looking forward to the Lemmy version. Jerboa has a pretty similar UI but it just doesn’t have the same polish.

    I used Sync for Reddit. The dev seems close to releasing the beta of Sync for Lemmy.

    Connect for Lemmy has been a very nice alternative, especially after the most recent update. I might be torn once Sync is out.

      This! As a former sync user and recently trying out connect (yesterday for the 1st time), I think I might be torn as well.

      It doesn’t get enough credit, but it was the best client in my opinion. Hope he’ll make a Lemmy version.
