RedReader by QuantumBadger was my main Reddit app, which I used for 6 years, so much so that my old phone had the back, sort and refresh icons burned into the screen. Reddit's official app was hot garbage six years ago and still is today.
If Reddit management hadn't acted with such hostility, there's a chance I would have stayed on RedReader... I'd known for a while change was coming to the site and it would continue to be for the worse. I'm so happy to have a nice place like Lemmy to go to instead.
Do note! RR is supposed to get lemmy support, as they are expecting their api access to end at some point, and lots of users migrated here. It hasn't happened yet but try to check either the sub or the Github from time to time (or just get notified by watching the gh releases tbh).
I was using RR (am, it's still on my device) since basically launch, and I was the one who suggested that qb open an avenue for donations. I've been a patreon for the last... 2 years? Basically my first 'I'm never giving this one up, this is a permanent install'. 11 years later, still going.
