Apollo for the past years that I've been on iOS and BaconReader before that on Android
Technology
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I used to use Boost, I stopped when they banned the community showing how to switch to kbin.
I was with boost too. I deleted it at the start of the blackout after using it for like 7 years.
Never was a heavy user. I was using infinity, uninstalled before api change was announced actually.
I used a variety of 3rd party reddit apps (reddit is fun, slide, and infinity), but deleted my account after the API mess. I've been using Jerboa with Lemmy the last week or two
I used Apollo for over 5 years. Before that, I had an Android, so I used Baconreader and later Relay. Before THAT, I used Alien Blue.
Ever since the blackout, I have only visited Reddit once. Definitely making Lemmy my primary forum nowadays.
I use Boost
I've used Boost for years.

I was using Comet on iOS
I definitely have used a client for years, that being RedReader. They actually managed to get a non-commercial accessibility api requirements exemption. The creator of it may be interested in adding support for accessing Lemmy and similar federated networks within the same app. That would actually be a great idea, I really hope they can make my favorite client a all in one. https://reddit.com/comments/145du4j
Reddit didn't have a third party app (just the compact and mobile interface) when I used it, so I picked up an app and never left.
I mostly use Alien Blue and Apollo, both of which are almost certainly on the chopping block. I tried the official Reddit app for a little bit, but my iPad Mini 2 is too old and slow for it, so it tends to crash almost instantly, or run rather poorly.
On my phone, I started with relay, but moved to Redreader and Infinity, since they were open source, and have better performance compared to Relay. I still keep relay around for the message notifications, since they're better than the other two apps.
Relay Pro user for a few years here.
I did, Apollo, before leaving Reddit for good. It was the reason why I used Reddit in the first place.
Not sure if the responses to the poll are skewed, but the vote suggests vastly different numbers than Reddit would lead you to believe
I used to use Teddit.net and Stealth on F-Droid before the u/spez tomfoolery.
Apollo for years. I check in on Reddit occasionally and will until month end.
Same. I opened the Reddit native app during this whole controversy and it is so much worse. Not even because of the UI, but because of the frequent and sneaky ads between posts and comments. It’s just a worse / capitalist nightmare experience.
Relay until the blackout, browser only now since I've uninstalled everything reddit after.
I originally started on iOS with Alien Blue waaaay back when, but after swapping to an Android device I swapped to RiF.
I used BaconReader for a long time and then switched to Relay several years ago. I'm going to miss it dearly.
I’m not on Reddit right now; but I was on Apollo since it came out, feels like about 10y right now.
Used to use Apollo and Reddit sync now switched over to Jeroba for Lemmy (android) and pwa for iPad
Might consider sync for Lemmy after it develops.
Using RIF until it throws errors at me
I have used reddit is fun for my entire 6 years on the platform
I'm still using Infinity For Reddit until the app doesn't work anymore.
Me. I use Slide for Android, an #openSource one (do we do hashtags here, can't recall!)
I used "Now for Reddit" for 95% of my time on Reddit. Once I discovered it that was it for me. Only dealt with the web if I had no other choice.
Never did web on mobile.
Crazy that it took this much scrolling for me to find someone mentioning "Now for Reddit".
It was the same for me - I've tried all the apps mentioned here, but Now was just coded for exactly what I needed functionally and aesthetically. Everything else felt less. I think it speaks so clearly to the importance of 3rd party devs and app choice, we all have a different definition of perfect.
All that said, I haven't even opened the app since the blackout started. I hope the dev ports over to Lemmy/beehaw/etc.
