There's no way this poll is accurate. Just looking at the Play Store the official app has 100M+ downloads. The bext closest, rif, has 5M+. I think people underestimate how many casual users go straight to the official app and don't care about any of this is.
Sync all the way
I used Infinity until I deleted my Reddit account in connection with the protests. Now I don't use Reddit at all.
I used Sync up until last week.
Won't be back.
During my 13.5 years of Reddit, I've used at least these, in possibly this order
- Alien Blue (RIP)
- Bacon Reader
- Reddit is Fun
- Reddit Sync
- Joey, for the last ~6 years
Don't browse Reddit anymore, apps or browser. If I do end up visiting via Google, I use old.reddit.com.
Well, I did. Now I don’t use Reddit at all. Apollo.
Used Apollo before, now I don't use it.
I used Apollo since it’s inception, and Alien Blue before that. Now I’ve deleted all Reddit apps and exclusively use kbin, for the last week or so.
I used Baconreader, Relay, and in 2014 got Sync pro and have used that ever since.
I stopped using reddit for the blackout and have been trying Jerboa and /kbin since then.
Apollo. So no more reddit for me when the app shuts down officially.
I wish Christian would made an Apollo-like app for the Fediverse.
Relay
I've used Joey for years. (I've never used the official app.)
I'm not using anything right now and have deleted one of my accounts. I'll be deleting the other one in the next week.
I use 3: RedReader, Stealth & Relay
I used RiF. Tried a few other apps over the years, but nothing beat the clean, uncluttered UI.
I used RIF for over a decade, it did everything I wanted so I never sought out an alternative.
The only open question is, whether at least one of the popular apps will transition Lemmy. This should doable since the concept is so similar.
The world needs good Fediverse apps. If they include mastodon, we can say good bye to Musk's twitter as well.
Still have Apollo installed to use it until the last day. Been using less and less thou in recent 1-2 weeks.
I was using Apollo before... well... you know, everything.
I used a 3rd party app for years until last week. The bridge is burned I'm not going back.
I used to use Boost, I stopped when they banned the community showing how to switch to kbin.
Apollo until last week. Deleted Reddit account.
RIF was Reddit for me.
I preferred the /.compact version of Reddit. They disabled it a few months back and all the alternatives suck.
I've used RedReader for many years. When the api changes were announced I was certain I would never use reddit before, as I usually browse it on the phone. I still want to migrate away from reddit fully, but since RedReader has an api exception it's going to be more difficult to break my addiction.
10 years on Relay. I've stopped going now.
Apollo for iOS, RiF for Android I've pretty much been off Reddit since the blackout
If "currently" means before the debacle (because I don't use Reddit currently): no, I'm primarily a desktop user, I used old Reddit and RES and I don't really have much personal attachment to 3rd party apps (that doesn't mean I won't stand with those who do).
I think that the API issue is more of a symptom of something much more deeply wrong with Reddit, if it wasn't the API it would have been some other breaking point.
Infinity!
RIF, though I haven't visited Reddit in the last week. Call it me training for the 30th
Me for about 10 more days or so apparently.
Then it'll just be Jerboa on my phone because I refuse to install that piece of crap official Reddit app entirely. If a Google search takes me to Reddit for an answer I'll just use my browser until they eventually kill that too probably.
reddit is not fun anymore
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.
I use the Apollo app and wait until the ship sinks…
I started with RIf for ten first few years and then switched over to Sync. I loved the customization that Sync provides
Sync, but I already got rid of it and my Reddit stuff.
I used Apollo. Now I'm only using it to check whether Christian Selig commented on anything, but nothing more than that.
I plan to nuke my last remaining Reddit account on June 30th.
Have used various third party apps in the past, won't name, they've never been too bad.
Usually neater and pay homage to the original style of Reddit as a long form text based forum,. From what I've seen, the official Reddit app and front page on desktop has evolved into a Facebook style newsfeed of images and short videos.
Not my jam
RIF right until I stopped using reddit.
Depends on how "currently" is defined. If it means right now, then no. However, if it means until all this then yes. I used to use redreader before i nuked my accounts and content in protest and came to lemmy full time
