There were no really good free Reddit apps for iOS. Apollo hit a niche. A free Lemmy app would at least have to compete with Mlem and the time frame is narrow until the market is flooded (see also: Mastodon’s three months from 0 to 7262952 apps).

There was, Alien Blue. Then Reddit bought it up and disfigured it into the official app.

There were a few others besides Apollo though. BaconReader was solid.

I used BaconReader on Android back in the day. I didn’t know it had an iOS version. I stand corrected.
