Word. As an Android user, Apollo wasn’t on my radar. Christian certainly made a name for himself throughout all of this - he was a phenomenal David against Reddit’s Goliath, but I RiF was the backbone of my Reddit experience and will be dearly missed. Excited to see what apps for kbin rise from the ashes of Reddit.

I’ve used both RIF (10-15 years ago) and Apollo (last 8 years or so). They are and were light years ahead of the official app. At this point I’m just like, “OK, bye bitch” with Reddit.

I used RIF, Boost, and Apollo. Whatever. I’ll try anything once.

We didn’t hear from RIF or Boost as much because I think they thought reddit was negotiating in good faith, and they would come to a compromise that didn’t shut down their app. That was never in the plan for reddit, and they lost a few weeks of talking to people about what was happening.

I used Apollo the last years, but I had an Android before that and used RiF, I‘m sad about both and sad about the death of all the others I never used too. Reddit has lost me as a user forever and hope they enjoy their corporate curated ad experience over there. Goodbye to all the talented devs, may their next projects be even more successful.
