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.

How many of you use a 3rd-party app to browse Reddit?

RIF, but I won't after the 30th of course. Won't be switching to the main app or using Reddit at all on my phone anymore, just those niche communities that don't have an equivalent on lemmy yet through old.reddit and RES

Well I did use sync, now using jerboa of course. Would be neat if sync or other apps could be remade for the fedverse. An app that could bridge different fedverse apps more easily like lemmy and mastadon for instance but keep everything easily readable and sortable would be cool.

I've bounced around through a couple different apps over my almost 14 years on that site. I never loved the official app.

  • RiF
  • Sync
  • Apollo (for my Apple devices)
  • Relay, though has been my go to for the past years though.

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.

Apollo on my iPad and Sync on my Android phone.

I’m not on Reddit right now; but I was on Apollo since it came out, feels like about 10y right now.

I only used the official Reddit app when reading Reddit on my phone. It was quite annoying to write posts with the app, but reading them was fine. I prefered using the website on my laptop though.

Bacon Reader then Sync

I have used reddit is fun for my entire 6 years on the platform

I used BaconReader for a long time and then switched to Relay several years ago. I'm going to miss it dearly.

I used to use Teddit.net and Stealth on F-Droid before the u/spez tomfoolery.

I used Baconreader on Android but I may have subscribed to RSS at one time too. 14 years but not so much recently.

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 use Redder on iPad for the last several years. It apparently hasn’t been updated in 2 years, and I have no idea if there is a userbase of any size.

Just bought the Mac version of Redder about two months ago….

Such a useless poll
