It's why I'm here! Reddit and their IPO can suck it. Started looking for a replacement and found Lemmy. I always think of the Koopa kid, though.

The reddit API cost change that killed all popular third party apps.

RIP Apollo, one of the best pieces of software i’ve ever used that was made by one guy. So many features, dev listened to users, always quick to fix bugs, incredible pricing.

[-] linucs@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

I don't know what you're using for Lemmy and have never used Apollo but I'm using Voyager and many people say it really feels like Apollo. P.S. I am using the web app but they also have native app options now

Reddits power trip

[-] KingJalopy@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Reddit users* power trip. We always have the choice.

Not quite. When you're given an ultimatum of "Stop using that good, fully functional app and use our one instead; it's not completely functional but it does give us money or fuck off", there isn't much of a choice there. Those who don't wish to knuckle under to scum (see: "tyrants") forge a new path, it's as simple as that.

I feel a bit silly in my reason for swapping when so many have such strong feelings. I’ve just hated spez for over a decade and the chance to jump ship to a foss social network populated with actual humans made me froth with excitement.

[-] DebatableRaccoon@lemmy.ca 7 points 2 years ago

Nothing wrong with that. If you hate the face of a company for personal, political, philosophical, or whatever reasons, it's perfectly acceptable to not want to use that companies product(s).

[-] Corgana@startrek.website 1 points 2 years ago

Same. Would have switched many times over if there was a viable option (not Tildes lol) and was/am very happy to see the Lemmy network establish itself.
