Apollo founder Christian Selig said he’s “heartbroken” about pulling the plug on the third-party app following Reddit’s API pricing changes.
I’ve always preferred mobile sites to apps. Not sure why. Maybe I just like to use Safari to manage all that I’m checking out.
But I stand with developers. Even Balmer knew developers are a major key to success. I’m not interested in using a site with such hostile ownership.
Fuck spez.
I do too! I just generally don’t want to keep track of and manage permission and data access for a number of different apps that might change when the ownership changes. I see apps as a way for the owner to take control of more of your mobile environment than is actually warranted, whereas connecting to all services through my browser lets me stay in control of what information they have access to – to some extent.
Except that when using Safari to access reddit, any post marked as NSFW forces you into the app.
Looks like it works if you’re signed in. I tried r/Playboy while signed in and it worked. Tried again in a private tab and didn’t.
