A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Apollo since day one. When I searched for an app originally, I thought it WAS the official app lol. Now that they're gone, I'm gone.
Yes, Infinity. Actually I used the official Reddit app until all of this hit the news. Then I deleted that app and switched to Infinity. When infinity goes, I'll delete it and I'm done with Reddit except on an alt account on my desktop. And that will just be for correspondence.
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.
Naturally.
Reddit is Fun back when I was on Android. Apollo once I moved to iOS. I will sorely miss Apollo.
I never used a 3rd party app on reddit.
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 used Apollo on iOS and Sync Pro for Android. Deleted my account of fifteen years though
Bought multiple copies of Sync Pro and Ultimate. Apollo was good, RiF was great but Sync Pro was GOD! The GOAT!
Still holding out hope that ljdawson does a sync pro for lemmy. Hope he at least adds a splash page on the 30th explaining why the app no longer works and where to go.
I'm still using Infinity For Reddit until the app doesn't work anymore.
Apollo forever till the blackout. Replaced the apollo spot with Mlem to keep my muscle memory from screwing over my desire to not support the reddit changes.
before i quit i used infinity on android and old reddit on desktop
I wouldn't say "currently", but I used to use Infinity.
RIF for many years, switched to Infinity a year or two ago
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.
I used bacon reader for a couple years before switching to relay and staying there for like 10 years or something like that. Tried others here and there but always quickly went back to relay for one reason or another. I'll be sad to see it go
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.
I used to use Boost, I stopped when they banned the community showing how to switch to kbin.

I've used Boost for years.
Well I did use sync, now using jerboa of course. Would be neat if sync or other apps could be remade for the fedverse. An app that could bridge different fedverse apps more easily like lemmy and mastadon for instance but keep everything easily readable and sortable would be cool.
I've been using boost for a while now. Just felt right for me.
I use Joey, a lesser known but very customizable app for reddit. But I've reduced my participation there.
Used Reddit is Fun. Obviously not anymore.
Not sure if the responses to the poll are skewed, but the vote suggests vastly different numbers than Reddit would lead you to believe
