Apollo founder Christian Selig said he's "heartbroken" about pulling the plug on the third-party app following Reddit's API pricing changes.

Left as soon as Slide stopped working.

To me third party apps is what made Reddit special. Now Reddit is just another social media platform, so I’m staying far away.

I’m enjoying pixel pals though, and I recommend others give it a go too

Yes, "some." I dumped that shit like a bad habit when Sync died, and I'm far from the only one. Reddit has gone from Apollo to appal_ling_.

I haven't willingly been back since the 12th. Shithead CEOs aren't going to profit off my contributions. If everyone did the same it would evaporate overnight

I did. I now only go there with adblock turned on for google search results. Hopefully this place develops niche pages like r/California and r/TeslaMotors soon though.

I’m certainly walking away for the most part, hopefully lemmy can become my daily scroller. That said though, I’ll definitely get on reddit again at some point. Its just too useful of a resource to never touch again. If I need some question answered and only reddit has it, I’m not gonna pass on it just to make a point that primarily hurts me. Other than that though, my primary reddit usage died with Apollo
