Looks like Apollo is now dead boys and girls. Feels like having a loved one die

So at the moment my “workflow” is to completely stop accessing Reddit via mobile apps. I’ll still use Reddit via Google Searches because it remains important for finding key information.

I’m content playing with Lemmy as my main mobile “app”.

Oh this is awesome! I was wondering how I’d manage without the ol’ browser searches

On iOS I sideload Reddit+ with AltStore (no jailbreak needed). It gets rid of all the ads, promoted content and whatnot. Other than that, I also use Inoreader app with the RSS.

Is Teddit and Libreddit going to keep working through this?

Old.reddit would not show comments anymore. It will direct you to reddit.

So I believe they might stop working at any moment.

Thanks for the suggestion!

I feel like Lemmy will only grow from here.

So many old subs have popped up and become properly active.

There’s so much community knowledge on reddit, it’s kinda painful to see everyone deleting all their historical comments and posts.

I get it, but still that’s information presumably lost forever.

What is information archival on the Fediverse like? Is there any advantage to Reddit?

Also if I understand last discussions, it’s not clear how well the Fediverse currently behaves with Google searches.
