I used the mobile app for reddit while falling asleep and that was 99% of my interaction with the site unless it popped up from a google search while on the PC. I'll still use it for that probably, but no way I am using that dumpster fire of an app. Mobile use died with apollo for me

I deleted my 11 year old account today, don't want to be a part of that community anymore.

I used Now for Reddit for years. Was a great app. Somehow it's still working. Must not be big enough for Reddit to kill.

If I didn't have a subreddit to moderate, I would walk away now that I can't use apollo.

Reddit directly inspired the creation of the instance I'm on with that shitshow.

Not long made the switch and so far I'm liking it. Subscribing to remote communities is more complicated than I think it needs to be but, meh, you only do it once. Fingers crossed it keeps growing, Reddit was fun for a good while but it's been heading downhill fast recently.
