Just the whole fact that 3rd party reddit apps like Apollo that everyone loved are dead now because of the api pricing and a bunch of people moved to lemmy. it just seemed like an ironic question.

I recently bought RIF golden platinum just to give back to the dev, knowing that very soon the app will stop working. I’m hoping the dev could reuse his code and swap out the backend to make a lemmy client of the same caliber. It really is a good app.

Apollo for iOS, RiF for Android I’ve pretty much been off Reddit since the blackout

Define “currently”… I still have rif on my phone but I haven’t used Reddit in a week

Yeah, “currently” is the wrong adverb to use. Relay and Boost were common apps I used and pretty much the only means I used to access Reddit. I only touched the desktop web app when I got a web search link.

Hey, another Joey user.

Nice.

Usually doesn’t get mentioned when people talk about third party apps.

Another ex-Joey user here. Did exactly what I wanted. Nice and clean interface.

Joey devs had a poll recently asking would I pay a subscription for the app (for Reddit). I said no, but maybe they would consider altering Joey to work with Lemmy… not sure how easy that would be though. Are any of the other clients’ devs considering the same does anyone know?

I think it’s dev, single person. All the more impressive.

Also probably that’s why it is so good - one person’s vision and passion project without anything getting on the way.
