I’ve been seeing a lot of pro-reddit, anti-mod comments, despite tens of thousands of up votes on Reddit blackout posts. Pro-reddit comments also have a ton of gold for some reason.
Is reddit trying to change the narrative towards hating on mods for “ruining everything” before they try and remove them?
After June 30th Lemmy is still my new home. I won’t browse reddit without Relay Pro.
I used Apollo, and after the way they treated the creator, there’s no way I would use Reddit again.
Apollo was an outstanding app. Easily my most used when I had an iPhone. The fact that it’s been killed by Reddit is absolutely shameful imo.
I have Boost (paid), Relay (paid), BaconReader (paid) and at one point, Apollo (paid).
I loathe the official app and ads, I won’t be back either. I have a special amount of contempt for the Reddit app even prior to this event.
I really liked Reddit Sync and I’ve never used the official app before. The way I see it, if I’m going to be forced to make a change anyway, I might as well leave Reddit altogether for something new.
Just a heads up, looks like Relay pro will still be a thing moving to a sub mode (dev states $2-$3/month)
That’s very tempting, but there’s no telling if reddit will raise API pricing going forward, or add more restrictions to 3rd party apps. Their community has gone to shit anyway. Better to just pull the plug entirely and start anew.
