Apollo - A beautiful app built for power and speed.

Since many of us are trying to avoid giving reddit any traffic, this space can be used to discuss Apollo, our dreams of seeing it join the Fediverse, and to give our appreciation to @[email protected] for his incredible work.

I was just browsing Apollo for the last time when it closed on me and now won’t open. I guess this is it. Thanks for everything!

Same with Redditisfun, so that's that, and now I'm here. 9 years there, here's to 9 more.

I had no idea how long I was using reddit for until this whole thing blew up. 10 years and the last several years have been exclusively through Apollo. Moving on now.

Yeah I had rif open this morning and then I took a gander and error with nothing loading. It's over. Now I'm not sure what to do in regards of my world news and silly stuff. I mean if I can start focusing more on doing other things that's good, but reddit through rif was my toilet app. I opened it when I dropped my deuce.

Same happened to me. I’m going to miss Apollo. I was a user since the beginning

Christian said there would still be some functionality after the API changes. The crashing is a bug but very sad indeed, it hit me earlier than expected.

Good to know. I guess it’s just a coincidence it started happening same time as RIF then. Either way, this might be it for reddit for a lot of users.
